    In this interesting paper, the authors have obtained a new integral representation for the squares of Hermite polynomials. It is further used to obtain the following asymptotic expansion \[ \bar e^{x^ 2}[H_ n(x)]^ 2/2^ nn!=(1/\sqrt{2})\sum^{\infty}_{r=0}(a_ r/\Gamma (- r+)n^{r+})+ \] \[ +((-1)^ n/\sqrt{2})\sum^{\infty}_{r=0}b_ r(x\sqrt{2/n})^{r+}J_{-p-}(2x\sqrt{2n}). \] The authors further claim that their procedure leads to the evaluation of a variety of new inverse Laplace transforms such as \[ L_ t^{-1}\{p^{-1}\exp (-x \coth \alpha p)\}=e^{-x}L_ n(2x) \] where \(n=[t/2\alpha]\) and \(L_ n\) denotes Laguerre polynomial.
