Abstract

The irregular radial Coulomb wave function in repulsive fields is expressed, for any angular momentum value, in series of Bessel functions of arbitrary order. Previous expansions, obtained for angular momenta zero and one, can now be obtained as special cases. The expansion can be most conveniently used for high-energy particles.
