AdvancedMathSphericalBesselJ Method

Computes the regular spherical Bessel function of integer order.

Namespace:  Meta.Numerics.Functions
Assembly:  Meta.Numerics (in Meta.Numerics.dll) Version: 4.1.4
Syntax
public static double SphericalBesselJ(
	int n,
	double x
)

Parameters

n
Type: SystemInt32
The order parameter.
x
Type: SystemDouble
The argument.

Return Value

Type: Double
The value of jn(x).
Remarks

The spherical Bessel functions occur in solutions to the wave equations with spherical symmetry. The regular sperhical Bessel functions are finite at the origin, and thus occur in situations where the wave equation is satisfied at the origin.

The regular spherical Bessel functions are related to the regular Bessel functions of half-integer order by jn(x) = Sqrt(π/2x) Jn+1/2(x).
