Okay, so I can't generate the terms algebraically.
But each coefficient of \(z^k\) is the term \(c_k\) in \(c_k \log(2)^{kz}\) in the sum I wrote above.
This is done through a recursive protocol built into my program beta.gp. It's just a redundant amount of code meant to run the Schroder iteration, so it doesn't use any of the math of the beta method. I just installed this code into the program.
So this is \(A = \Psi(1)\) and the function output \(\Psi^{-1}(A*z)\) for a variable \(z\). But it gives the coefficients \(c_k\).
Code:
/*I've already initialized the base value as b=log(2)/2, and the beta polynomials, once you do that you can initialize the regular iteration, then you can run the code I'm writing*/
A = Sch_reg(1)
%39 = -0.63209866105082925035545064599078086279940391183279

At the amount of recursion I ran, slash series precision, digit precision--we're probably accurate to at least 25-30 digits. Might have more errors as we go further out.
Either way, setting \(z= \log(2)^x\) creates the asymptotic expansion Catullus is talking about, but it's actually just a Taylor expansion/Fourier expansion.
