The authors study the properties of the product of two \(m\)-th order differential operators on \([0, \infty)\). Using the construction theory of self-adjoint operators, they give a necessary and sufficient condition for the self-adjointness of the product operator. Their main theorem extends the results in the second order case proved by \textit{Z. J. Cao, J. Sun} and \textit{D. E. Edmunds} [Acta Math. Sin. (Engl. Ser.) 15, No. 3, 375--386 (1997; Zbl 0934.34017)].
