      <itunes:summary>While your integral is unreadable, the signum and csgn functions in the output are maple's way of handling missing information about e and a. To avoid them, you need to tell give maple more information, say, e and a are both positive. You can do this using assuming:

int( your_integrand, ...)  assuming a::positive, e::positive;

Look up ?signum and ?csgn to see what they do.</itunes:summary>
