High-order derivatives of the Bessel functions with an application

Abstract: We determine the asymptotic behaviour of the $n$th derivatives of the Bessel functions $J_\nu(a)$ and $K_\nu(a)$, where $a$ is a fixed positive quantity, as $n\to\infty$. These results are applied to the asymptotic evaluation of two incomplete Laplace transforms of these Bessel functions on the interval $[0,a]$ as the transform variable $x\to+\infty$. Similar evaluation of the integrals involving the Bessel functions $Y_\nu(t)$ and $I_\nu(t)$ is briefly mentioned.
