| Abstract: | The cylindrical Bessel differential equation and the spherical Bessel differential equation in the interval $$R \le r \le \gamma R$$R≤r≤γRwith Neumann boundary conditions are considered. The eigenfunctions are linear combinations of the Bessel function $$\Phi _{n,\nu }(r)=Y_{\nu }^{\prime }(\lambda _{n,\nu }) J_{\nu }(\lambda _{n,\nu } r/R)-J_{\nu }^{\prime }(\lambda _{n,\nu }) Y_{\nu }(\lambda _{n,\nu } r/R)$$Φn,ν(r)=Yν′(λn,ν)Jν(λn,νr/R)-Jν′(λn,ν)Yν(λn,νr/R)or linear combinations of the spherical Bessel functions $$\psi _{m,\nu }(r)=y_{\nu }^{\prime }(\lambda _{m,\nu }) j_{\nu }(\lambda _{m,\nu } r/R)-j_{\nu }^{\prime }(\lambda _{m,\nu }) y_{\nu }(\lambda _{m,\nu } r/R)$$ψm,ν(r)=yν′(λm,ν)jν(λm,νr/R)-jν′(λm,ν)yν(λm,νr/R). The orthogonality relations with analytical expressions for the normalization constant are given. Explicit expressions for the Lommel integrals in terms of Lommel functions are derived. The cross product zeros $$Y_{\nu }^{\prime }(\lambda _{n,\nu }) J_{\nu }^{\prime }(\gamma \lambda _{n,\nu })-J_{\nu }^{\prime }(\lambda _{n,\nu }) Y_{\nu }^{\prime }(\gamma \lambda _{n,\nu }) = 0$$Yν′(λn,ν)Jν′(γλn,ν)-Jν′(λn,ν)Yν′(γλn,ν)=0and $$y_{\nu }^{\prime }(\lambda _{m,\nu }) j_{\nu }^{\prime }(\gamma \lambda _{m,\nu })-j_{\nu }^{\prime }(\lambda _{m,\nu }) y_{\nu }^{\prime }(\gamma \lambda _{m,\nu }) = 0$$yν′(λm,ν)jν′(γλm,ν)-jν′(λm,ν)yν′(γλm,ν)=0are considered in the complex plane for real as well as complex values of the index $$\nu $$νand approximations for the exceptional zero $$\lambda _{1,\nu }$$λ1,νare obtained. A numerical scheme based on the discretization of the two-dimensional and three-dimensional Laplace operator with Neumann boundary conditions is presented. Explicit representations of the radial part of the Laplace operator in form of a tridiagonal matrix allow the simple computation of the cross product zeros. |
