1: 14.31 Other Applications
§14.31(ii) Conical Functions
These functions are also used in the Mehler–Fock integral transform (§14.20(vi)) for problems in potential and heat theory, and in elementary particle physics (Sneddon (1972, Chapter 7) and Braaksma and Meulenbeld (1967)). …
2: 19.18 Derivatives and Differential Equations
The next four differential equations apply to the complete case of R F and R G in the form R a ( 1 2 , 1 2 ; z 1 , z 2 ) (see (19.16.20) and (19.16.23)). … Similarly, the function u = R a ( 1 2 , 1 2 ; x + i y , x i y ) satisfies an equation of axially symmetric potential theory: …

  • 8: 23.21 Physical Applications
    §23.21 Physical Applications
    In §22.19(ii) it is noted that Jacobian elliptic functions provide a natural basis of solutions for problems in Newtonian classical dynamics with quartic potentials in canonical form ( 1 x 2 ) ( 1 k 2 x 2 ) . The Weierstrass function plays a similar role for cubic potentials in canonical form g 3 + g 2 x 4 x 3 . …
