We derive two distinct asymptotic expansions for the zeros $j_{\nu,k}^{(n)}$ of the $n$-th derivative of Bessel function $J_\nu^{(n)}(x)$. The first is a McMahon-type expansion for the case when $k \to \infty$ with fixed $\nu$, for which we…
We study the classical problem of finding asymptotics for the Bessel functions $J_{\nu}(z)$ and $Y_{\nu}(z)$ as the argument $z$ and the order $\nu$ approach infinity. We use blow-up analysis to find asymptotics for the modulus and phase of…

The modified Bessel function of the second kind $K_{i\nu}(x)$ of imaginary order for fixed $x>0$ possesses a countably infinite sequence of real zeros. Recently it has been shown that the $n$th zero behaves like $\nu_n\sim \pi n/\log\,n$ as…
