Integral of $\sqrt{a(b(x+c)^2+1)}/((x-1)x^{3/2})$

70 Views Asked by At

I am trying to solve

$$\int_{x_0}^\infty\frac{\sqrt{a(b(x+c)^2+1)}}{(x-1)x^{3/2}}dx$$

where, $a,b,c,x_0,x\in\Bbb R$ and $b,c,x>0$ and $x_0>1$.

I tried a $\sinh$ substitution without too much success. I also tried something like $v=\sqrt{a(b(x+c)^2+1)}\quad$, but maybe I should first do some more transformations before attempting something like that.

This is not homework. I would be grateful for some hints.
