Let 𝕂⊂ℂ be a number field. We show how to compute 𝕂-irrationality measures of a number ξ∉𝕂, and 𝕂-nonquadraticity measures of ξ if [𝕂(ξ):𝕂]>2. By applying the saddle point method to a family of double complex integrals, we prove ℚ(α)-irrationality measures and ℚ(α)-nonquadraticity measures of log α for several algebraic numbers α∈ℂ, improving earlier results due to Amoroso and the second-named author.
