real or complex vector.

integer, with possible values 1 or 2, the Hankel function type.
Description
besseli(alpha,x)
computes modified Bessel functions of the first kind (I sub alpha), for real orderalpha
and argumentx
.besseli(alpha,x,1)
computesbesseli(alpha,x).*exp(-abs(real(x)))
.besselj(alpha,x)
computes Bessel functions of the first kind (J sub alpha), for real orderalpha
and argumentx
.besselj(alpha,x,1)
computesbesselj(alpha,x).*exp(-abs(imag(x)))
.besselk(alpha,x)
computes modified Bessel functions of the second kind (K sub alpha), for real orderalpha
and argumentx
.besselk(alpha,x,1)
computesbesselk(alpha,x).*exp(x)
.bessely(alpha,x)
computes Bessel functions of the second kind (Y sub alpha), for real orderalpha
and argumentx
.bessely(alpha,x,1)
computesbessely(alpha,x).*exp(-abs(imag(x)))
.besselh(alpha [,K] ,x)
computes Bessel functions of the third kind (Hankel function H1 or H2 depending onK
), for real orderalpha
and argumentx
. If omittedK
is supposed to be equal to 1.besselh(alpha,1,x,1)
computesbesselh(alpha,1,x).*exp(-%i*x)
andbesselh(alpha,2,x,1)
computesbesselh(alpha,2,x).*exp(%i*x)
Remarks
If alpha
and x
are arrays of
the same size, the result y
is also that size. If
either input is a scalar, it is expanded to the other input's size. If one
input is a row vector and the other is a column vector, the
resulty
is a two-dimensional table of function
values.
Y_alpha and J_alpha Bessel functions are 2 independant solutions of the Bessel 's differential equation :
K_alpha and I_alpha modified Bessel functions are 2 independant solutions of the modified Bessel 's differential equation :
H^1_alpha and H^2_alpha, the Hankel functions of first and second kind, are linear linear combinations of Bessel functions of the first and second kinds:
