The Modified Bessel Function Kn(z)
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 January 2009
Extract
Gray and Mathews, in their treatise on Bessel Functions, define the function Kn(z) to be
We shall denote this function by Vn(z). This definition only holds when z is real, and R(n)≧0. The asymptotic expansion of the function is also given; but the proof, which is said to be troublesome and not very satisfactory, is omitted. Basset (Proc. Camb. Phil. Soc., Vol. 6) gives a similar definition of the function.
