Anger Function

An entire function which is a generalization of the Bessel function of the first kind defined by

Anger's original function had an upper limit of , but the current notation was standardized by Watson (1966).

The Anger function may also be written as

where  is a regularized hypergeometric function.

If  is an integer , then , where  is a Bessel function of the first kind.

The Anger function is implemented in the Wolfram Language as AngerJ[nu, z].
