Definite Integral of Modified Bessel function representation

358 Views Asked by At

I am trying to express the following integral of the Modified Bessel function either in closed form or even using other special functions. Any ideas ?

$$ \int_{0}^{b}x\exp\left(-\,{x^{2} + z^{2} \over 2\sigma^2}\right) {\rm I}_{0}\left(\vphantom{\large A}xz \over \sigma^{2}\right)\,{\rm d}x $$

Note that the integration to infinity is given to be equal to one (the inside function is a probability function), i.e., :

$$ \int_{0}^{\infty}x\exp\left(-\,{x^{2} + z^{2} \over 2\sigma^2}\right) {\rm I}_{0}\left(\vphantom{\large A}xz \over \sigma^{2}\right)\,{\rm d}x=1 $$

Thank you for your time.

With respect
