Maple will not evaluate fully evaluate this integral, instead it gives the solution as a limit for r approaching infinity. How do I foce maple to actually evaluate this limit?
Here is the integral:
int(Z^3*Z^2*r^3*exp(-Z*r/a)/(pi*a^5), r = 0 .. infinity);
The result depends upon signum(Z/a)
(ie. whether Z/a
is greater or less than zero).
int(Z^3*Z^2*r^3*exp(-Z*r/a)/(Pi*a^5),
r = 0 .. infinity) assuming Z/a>0;
6 Z
----
Pi a
int(Z^3*Z^2*r^3*exp(-Z*r/a)/(Pi*a^5),
r = 0 .. infinity) assuming Z/a<0;
-infinity
ps. Also, I used Pi
as the symbol for the well-known constant. The lowercase name pi
doesn't mean anything special in Maple.
