Bessel Function of the Second KindA Bessel function of the second kind is a solution to the Bessel Differential Equation which is singular at theorigin. Bessel functions of the second kind are also called Neumann Functions or WeberFunctions. The above plot shows for , 2, ..., 5.
Let be the first solution and be the other one (since the Bessel Differential Equation issecond-order, there are two Linearly Independent solutions). Then
 | (1) |
 | (2) |
Take (1) minus (2),
 | (3) |
 | (4) |
so , where is a constant. Divide by ,
 | (5) |
 | (6) |
Rearranging and using gives
where the Bessel function of the second kind is defined by , 1, 2, ..., is the Euler-Mascheroni Constant, and
 | (9) |
The function is given by
 | (10) |
Asymptotic equations are
where is a Gamma Function.See also Bessel Function of the First Kind, Bourget's Hypothesis, Hankel Function References
