Notes on the two-centre problem in wave mechanics
II. Some new solutions of the wave equation

Extract
The paper deals with new solutions of the differential equations of the two-centre problem which are expressed in terms of the confluent hypergeometric function. By means of this function a solution of the λ-equation (1) is obtained which enables the separation constant A to be found for small values of the parameter p in a rapidly convergent series, which for the special case of m = 0 is still more rapidly convergent. The solution for the μ-equation (2) in the general case is of the same character as regards rapidity of convergence as solutions previously obtained, but when m = 0 it again possesses a higher rate of convergence as compared with solutions given by other investigators.
