Abstract
In a series of recent works, we have provided a number of explicit expressions for the derivative of the associated Legendre function of the first kind with respect to its degree, , with . In this communication, we use some of those expressions to obtain several, we believe new, explicit formulas for the derivatives , where is the Legendre polynomial.
