52 Theorem Introduction Theorem If λ and μ are distinct positive roots of J n (x) = 0 then { 1 0, if λ = μ xj n (λx)j n (μx) dx = J2 n+1 (λ), if λ = μ

53 Proof Introduction Proof. Suppose λ = μ, then λ and μ are distinct positive roots of J n (x) = 0. Since J n (λx) and J n (μx) are solutions of the Bessel equation in parametric form, we can write and x 2 J n (λx) + xj n(λx) + (λ 2 x 2 n 2 )J n (λx) = 0 (1) x 2 J n (μx) + xj n(μx) + (μ 2 x 2 n 2 )J n (μx) = 0 (2) Equations (1) and (2) may be written in the form

54 Proof Introduction x d dx [ x d ] dx J n(λx) + (λ 2 x 2 n 2 )J n (λx) = 0 (3) and x d dx [ x d ] dx J n(μx) + (μ 2 x 2 n 2 )J n (μx) = 0 (4) Multiplying (3) by Jn(μx) x and (4) by Jn(λx) x we get

55 Proof Introduction J n (μx) d dx [ x d ] dx J n(λx) + 1 x (λ2 x 2 n 2 )J n (λx)j n (μx) = 0 (5) and J n (λx) d dx [ x d ] dx J n(μx) + 1 x (μ2 x 2 n 2 )J n (μx)j n (λx) = 0 (6) Then subtracting, (5) - (6) we get

56 Proof Introduction J n (μx) d [ x d ] dx dx J n(λx) J n (λx) d [ x d ] dx dx J n(μx) + (λ 2 μ 2 )xj n (λx)j n (μx) = 0 (7) With some more manipulation, equation (7) may be written as

57 Proof Introduction [ d dx d dx J n (μx)x d ] dx J n(λx) [ J n (λx)x d ] dx J n(μx) + (λ 2 μ 2 )xj n (λx)j n (μx) = 0 (8) Finally integrating (8) from 0 to 1 noting that J n (λ) = J n (μ) = 0, we get

58 Proof Introduction (λ 2 μ 2 ) 1 0 xj n (λx)j n (μx) dx = 0 And since λ = μ, then we may divide to get the desired result 1 0 xj n (λx)j n (μx) dx = 0 (9)

59 Coefficients Introduction Theorem If λ and μ are distinct positive roots of J n (x) = 0 then { 1 0, if λ = μ xj n (λx)j n (μx) dx = J2 n+1 (λ), if λ = μ 1 0 xj n(λx)j n (λx) dx = 1 2 J2 n+1 (λ) = 0

60 Coefficients Introduction Theorem If λ and μ are distinct positive roots of J n (x) = 0 then { 1 0, if λ = μ xj n (λx)j n (μx) dx = J2 n+1 (λ), if λ = μ 1 0 xj n(λx)j n (λx) dx = 1 2 J2 n+1 (λ) = rj 0(j n r)j 0 (j n r) dr = 1 2 J2 1 (j n) = 0

61 Coefficients Introduction Theorem If λ and μ are distinct positive roots of J n (x) = 0 then { 1 0, if λ = μ xj n (λx)j n (μx) dx = J2 n+1 (λ), if λ = μ 1 0 xj n(λx)j n (λx) dx = 1 2 J2 n+1 (λ) = rj 0(j n r)j 0 (j n r) dr = 1 2 J2 1 (j n) = 0 A n = 1 0 rj 0(j nr)f (r) dr 1 0 rj 0(j nr)j 0 (j nr) dr
