§13.23(iv) Integral Transforms in terms of Whittaker Functions

Let f(x) be absolutely integrable on the interval [r,R] for all positive r<R, f(x)=O(xρ0) as x0+, and f(x)=O(e-ρ1x) as x+, where ρ1>12. Then for μ in the half-plane μμ1>max(-ρ0,κ-12)

13.23.13 g(μ) =1Γ(1+2μ)0f(x)x-32Mκ,μ(x)dx,
13.23.14 f(x) =1πixμ1-iμ1+iμg(μ)Γ(12+μ-κ)Wκ,μ(x)dμ.

For additional integral transforms see Magnus et al. (1966, p. 189), Prudnikov et al. (1992b, §§4.3.39–4.3.42), and Wimp (1964).

§13.23(v) Other Integrals

Additional integrals involving confluent hypergeometric functions can be found in Apelblat (1983, pp. 388–392), Erdélyi et al. (1954b), Gradshteyn and Ryzhik (2000, §7.6), and Prudnikov et al. (1990, §§1.13, 1.14, 2.19, 4.2.2). See also (13.16.2), (13.16.6), (13.16.7). Generalized orthogonality integrals (33.14.13) and (33.14.15) can be expressed in terms of Whittaker functions via the definitions in that section.
