Hey guys,
I need help with the expansion of this integral:
\int_0^\infty Z(x) J_o(\lambda x)dx for \lambda \rightarrow \infty
where I know that Z(x)\sim x^\sqrt{2} for small x and
exponentially small for large x
It seems with other examples that I have done that the major contribution to the integral comes from the region x\sim 1/\lambda. For larger x the integrand oscillates rapidly and the integration cancels. One change of variable (re-scaling) that you may try is t=\lambda x. But if you do it you end up with a divergent integral. And at first glance the original integral is convergent. Any hints?
Thanks.
