Extract

Little is known regarding the integration of Legendre Functions with respect to their degrees. In this paper several such integrals are evaluated, three different methods being employed. In § 2 proofs are given of a number of formulae which are required later. In § 3 an example is given of the evaluation of an integral by contour integration. The following section contains the proof of a formula of the Fourier Integral type, a special case of which was given in a previous paper (Proc. Roy. Soc. Edin., vol. li, 1931, p. 123). In § 5 an integral is evaluated by employing Fourier's Integral Theorem; while in § 6 other integrals are evaluated by. means of expansions in series.
