Solution of Bessel equation with a parameter

74 Views Asked by At

It is known that a zero-order Bessel equation can be written in the form:

$$\frac{d^2U}{dx^2}+\frac{1}{x}\frac{dU}{dx}+\beta^2U=0$$

having solution:

$$U(x) = C_1 J_0(\beta x)+C_2 Y_0(\beta x)$$

where $J_0$ and $Y_0$ are Bessel functions of first and second kind, respectively, and $C_1, C_2$ being constants.

Now, for the folowing equation, with a parameter $\alpha$:

$$\frac{d^2U}{dx^2}+\frac{\alpha}{x}\frac{dU}{dx}+\beta^2U=0$$

How the solution $U(x)$ can be written?
