Extract

The object of this paper is to obtain the original function of which the Laplace transform (l) is the product

where, as usual, p is complex, n is any positive integer, and Wk, m(z) is the Whittaker function defined by the equation

In § 2 it will be shown that this original function is

where the symbol Δ(n; α) represents the set of parameters
