KelvinBer

gives the Kelvin function .

gives the Kelvin function .

Details

Mathematical function, suitable for both symbolic and numerical manipulation.
For positive real values of parameters, $TemplateBox[{n, z}, KelvinBer2]= Re(e^(npii)TemplateBox[{n, {z, , {e, ^, {(, {{-, pi}, , {i, /, 4}}, )}}}}, BesselJ])$ . For other values, is defined by analytic continuation.
KelvinBer[n,z] has a branch cut discontinuity in the complex z plane running from to .
KelvinBer[z] is equivalent to KelvinBer[0,z].
For certain special arguments, KelvinBer automatically evaluates to exact values.
KelvinBer can be evaluated to arbitrary numerical precision.
KelvinBer automatically threads over lists.
