Description

 • The Kelvin functions (sometimes known as the Thomson functions) are defined by the following equations:

$\mathrm{KelvinBer}\left(v,x\right)+I\mathrm{KelvinBei}\left(v,x\right)=\mathrm{BesselJ}\left(v,x\left(-\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{2}+\frac{1}{2}I\sqrt{2}\right)\right)$

$\mathrm{KelvinBer}\left(v,x\right)-I\mathrm{KelvinBei}\left(v,x\right)=\mathrm{BesselJ}\left(v,x\left(-\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{2}-\frac{1}{2}I\sqrt{2}\right)\right)$

$\mathrm{KelvinKer}\left(v,x\right)+I\mathrm{KelvinKei}\left(v,x\right)={ⅇ}^{-\frac{1}{2}Iv\mathrm{\pi }}\mathrm{BesselK}\left(v,x\left(\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{2}+\frac{1}{2}I\sqrt{2}\right)\right)$

$\mathrm{KelvinKer}\left(v,x\right)-I\mathrm{KelvinKei}\left(v,x\right)={ⅇ}^{\frac{1}{2}Iv\mathrm{\pi }}\mathrm{BesselK}\left(v,x\left(\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{2}-\frac{1}{2}I\sqrt{2}\right)\right)$

$\mathrm{KelvinHer}\left(v,x\right)+I\mathrm{KelvinHei}\left(v,x\right)=\mathrm{HankelH1}\left(v,x\left(-\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{2}+\frac{1}{2}I\sqrt{2}\right)\right)$

$\mathrm{KelvinHer}\left(v,x\right)-I\mathrm{KelvinHei}\left(v,x\right)=\mathrm{HankelH2}\left(v,x\left(-\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{2}-\frac{1}{2}I\sqrt{2}\right)\right)$

 • The Kelvin functions are all real valued for real x and positive v.
