In slender-body theories, one cften has to find asymptotic approximations for certain integrals, representing distribution:; of sources along a line segment. Here, such approximations are obtained by a systematic method that uses Mellin transforms. Results are given near the line (using cylindrical polar coordinates) and near the ends of the line segment (using spherical polar coordinates).
