Zeros of bessel functions in scilab

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on finding the zeros of Bessel functions J0 and J1 using Scilab version 5.2.2. The user successfully computes the value of the Bessel function J0 at 3 using the command besselj(0,3), which returns 0.2600520. However, they seek assistance in determining the zeros of these functions. An alternative software solution is suggested, linking to a third-party tool that can perform this task.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of Bessel functions, specifically J0 and J1.
  • Familiarity with Scilab 5.2.2 and its syntax.
  • Basic knowledge of numerical methods for root-finding.
  • Awareness of third-party software tools for mathematical computations.
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore Scilab's built-in functions for root-finding algorithms.
  • Research numerical methods for finding zeros of Bessel functions.
  • Investigate the capabilities of the suggested third-party software for Bessel function analysis.
  • Learn about alternative software options for computing Bessel function zeros.
USEFUL FOR

Mathematicians, engineers, and researchers working with Bessel functions, as well as users of Scilab looking to enhance their computational skills in root-finding techniques.

Hi,

I use scilab 5.2.2
Ik have a problem to find the zeros or roots of the bessel functions J0,J1...

Whel I write besselj(0,3) I get the value of the bessel function Jo(3)=0,2600520.

Can someone help me how to find the zeros of these bessel functions in scilab.

Thank you

kind regards
