Correction (effective with 1.0.27):

Originally the polynomials $P_k(a)$, $Q_k(a)$ were incorrectly described as Legendre polynomials and integer-degree, zero-order associated Legendre functions of the second kind respectively.

… ►With the notation of Koekoek et al. (2010, (9.13.1)) the left-hand side of (18.34.1) has to be replaced by $y_n(x;a-2)$. …where ${𝗄}_n$ is a modified spherical Bessel function (10.49.9), and … Sometimes the polynomials ${\theta }_n(x;a,b)$ are called reverse Bessel polynomials. … ►Hence the full system of polynomials $y_n(x;a)$ cannot be orthogonal on the line with respect to a positive weight function, but this is possible for a finite system of such polynomials, the Romanovski–Bessel polynomials, if : … ►For uniform asymptotic expansions of $y_n(x;a)$ as $n\to \mathrm{\infty }$ in terms of Airy functions (§9.2) see Wong and Zhang (1997) and Dunster (2001c). …

8.7.6 $$\mathrm{\Gamma }(a,x)=x^a{\mathrm{e}}^{-x}\sum _{n=0}^{\mathrm{\infty }}\frac{L_n^{(a)}\left(x\right)}{n+1},$$ $x>0$, .

Proof sketch:

Integrate (18.12.13) from $z=0$ to $z=1$ and for the integral on the left-hand side use the substitution $z=\frac{t}{1+t}$. The resulting integral is (8.6.5). The constraint follows from (18.15.14).
