scipy.special.lmbda

scipy.special.lmbda(v, x)[source]

Jahnke-Emden Lambda function, Lambdav(x).

This function is defined as [R423],

Λv(x)=Γ(v+1)Jv(x)(x/2)v,

where Γ is the gamma function and Jv is the Bessel function of the first kind.

Parameters:

v : float

Order of the Lambda function

x : float

Value at which to evaluate the function and derivatives

Returns:

vl : ndarray

Values of Lambda_vi(x), for vi=v-int(v), vi=1+v-int(v), ..., vi=v.

dl : ndarray

Derivatives Lambda_vi’(x), for vi=v-int(v), vi=1+v-int(v), ..., vi=v.
