BESSELK(x,n)


  • Where is the value at which to evaluate the function
  • is the integer which is the order of the Bessel Function

Description

  • This function gives the value of the modified Bessel function when the arguments are purely imaginary.
  • Bessel functions is also called cylinder functions because they appear in the solution to Laplace's equation in cylindrical coordinates.
  • Bessel's Differential Equation is defined as:Failed to parse (syntax error): {\displaystyle x^2 (d^2 y/dx^2) + x(dy/dx) + (x^2 - α^2)y =0}

where α is the arbitary complex number.

  • But in most of the cases α is the non-negative real number.
  • The solutions of this equation are called Bessel Functions of order n.
  • Bessel functions of the first kind, denoted as Jn(x), and The Bessel function of the first kind of order can be expressed as:.
  • The Bessel function of the second kind Yn(x).
  • The Bessel function of the 2nd kind of order can be expressed as: Yn(x)=lt p tends to n {Jp(x)Cosp pi()- J-p(x)}/Sinp pi().
  • So the form of the general solution is y(x)=c1 In(x)+c2 Kn(x). where In(x)=i^-nJn(ix) and Kn(x)=lt p tends to n pi()/2[( I-p(x)-I p(x))/Sinp pi()] are the modified Bessel functions of the first and second kind respectively.This function will give the result as error when 1.x or n is non numeric

2. n<0, because n is the order of the function.
