Abstract

The aim of this short note is to examine the properties of a special function defined by an integral which was appeared in a paper by Ersoy. It is revealed that the function for is expressed in terms of the gamma function and it varies linearly with for . Its appropriate graphs are plotted and its pertinent values are tabulated.
