Integrating Inverse square root of a polynomial
I'm Looking for integrals of the following kind
$intlimits_{0}^{M} left( -x^3 +bx^2 -omega right)^{-frac{1}{2}} ,dx , ,$
for positive constants $b, omega$, and $M$ is on of the roots of the polynomial ($x=0$ isn't a root). I used the trigonometric method to find all three real roots of this polynomial.
I haven't found any good way of calculating this integral.

The result will be in terms of elliptic integrals and not elliptic functions; similarly, integrals like $intleft(a+bx+cx^2right)^{-frac12}mathrm dx$ are expressible in terms of inverse trigonometric functions and logarithms, not trigonometric functions and exponentials. In any event, there is a standard reduction algorithm in Abramowitz and Stegun that you might want to look into.

I don't see anything there which looks like my integral. All the polynomials under the root are either of 2nd or 4th degree, but I can't see how to transform it to a cubic,
