Hankel Transformations using method of Ogata 2005

Project description

https://travis-ci.org/steven-murray/hankel.svg?branch=master https://coveralls.io/repos/github/steven-murray/hankel/badge.svg?branch=master https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/hankel.svg

Perform simple and accurate Hankel transformations using the method of Ogata 2005.

Hankel transforms and integrals are commonplace in any area in which Fourier Transforms are required over fields that are radially symmetric (see Wikipedia for a thorough description). They involve integrating an arbitrary function multiplied by a Bessel function of arbitrary order (of the first kind). Typical integration schemes often fall over because of the highly oscillatory nature of the transform. Ogata’s quadrature method used in this package provides a fast and accurate way of performing the integration based on locating the zeros of the Bessel function.

Installation

Either clone the repository at github.com/steven-murray/hankel and use python setup.py install, or simply install using pip install hankel.

The only dependencies are numpy, scipy and mpmath (as of v0.2.0).

Features

  • Accurate and fast solutions to many Hankel integrals

  • Easy to use and re-use

  • Arbitrary order transforms

  • Built-in support for radially symmetric Fourier Transforms
