In this paper we study the following Bessel series $\sum _{l=1}^{\infty } {J_{l+m'}(r)J_{l+m}(r)}{(l+\beta)^\alpha}$ for any $m,m'\in\mathbb{Z}$, $\alpha\in\mathbb{R}$ and $\beta>-1$. They are a particular case of the second type Neumann…
Spherical Bessel functions appear commonly in many areas of physics wherein there is both translation and rotation invariance, and often integrals over products of several arise. Thus, analytic evaluation of such integrals with different…
We express a certain complex-valued solution of Legendre's differential equation as the product of an oscillatory exponential function and an integral involving only nonoscillatory elementary functions. By calculating the logarithmic…
The numerical evaluation of an individual Bessel or Hankel function of large order and large argument is a notoriously problematic issue in physics. Recurrence relations are inefficient when an individual function of high order and argument…
