      Verfasser behandelt die ``Kugelfunktion'' \[ K^{\mu} ( - \cos \theta) = \frac{2 \cos (\mu \pi i)}{\pi} \int^{\infty}_0 \frac{\cos \mu \alpha d \alpha}{\sqrt{2 (\cos \alpha i - \cos \theta)}} \] welche der Differentialgleichung \[ \frac{1}{\sin \theta} \cdot \frac{d}{d \theta} \left(\sin \theta \frac{dK}{d\theta} \right) - \left( \mu^2 + \frac{1}{4} \right) K = 0 \] genügt. Das allgemeine Integral der letzteren ist \[ K = AK^{\mu} (\cos \theta) + BK^{\mu} (- \cos \theta). \] Er zeigt den Zusammenhang der Funktion \(K^{\mu}\) mit den Kugel- und Cylinderfunktionen und entwickelt dieselbe für ein zusammengesetztes Argument (Additionstheorem).
