ⓘ

Keywords:: Coulomb functions: variables $\rho,\eta$ , power-series expansions in $\rho$
Notes:: For (33.6.5) use the definition (33.2.8) with $U\left(a,b,z\right)$ expanded as in (13.2.9). For (33.6.4) use (33.2.4) with Eq. (1.12) of Buchholz (1969).

The series (33.6.1), (33.6.2), and (33.6.5) converge for all finite values of $\rho$ . Corresponding expansions for ${H^{\pm}_{\ell}}'\left(\eta,\rho\right)$ can be obtained by combining (33.6.5) with (33.4.3) or (33.4.4).
