Abstract

We obtain a formula which reduces the evaluation of a 2ψ2_2\psi_2 series to two 2ϕ1_2\phi_1 series. In some sense, this identity may be considered as a companion of Slater's formulas. We also find that a two-term 2ψ2{}_2\psi_2 summation formula due to Slater can be derived from a unilateral summation formula of Andrews by bilateral extension and parameter augmentation.
