(B.57) Taking into account the spherical wave expansion of the plane wave exp(jk·r0) and integrating over α, we find the series representation
Cmn,m1 n (kr0) = 2jn −n jn a (m, m | n , n, n ) u1m−m n (kr0) (B.58)
n
with the expansion coe cients
a (m, m | n , n, n ) = π Pn|m| (cos β) Pn|m | (cos β) Pn|m−m | (cos β) sin βdβ.
0
We note that the expansion coe cients a(·) are defined by the spherical harmonic expansion theorem [70]
Pn|m| (cos β) Pn|m | (cos β) = a (m, −m | n , n, n ) Pn|m+m | (cos β) ,
n
where the summation over n is finite covering the range |n − n |, |n − n | + 2, ..., n + n . These coe cients can be identified with a product of two Wigner 3j symbols, which are associated with the coupling of two angular momentum eigenvectors. The azimuthal integration in (B.57) can be analytically performed by using the identity
k · r0 = kρ0 sin β cos (α − ϕ0) + kz0 cos β
and the standard integral
2π
ejx cos(α−ϕ0)ej(m−m )α dα = 2πjm −mJm −m(x)e−j(m −m)ϕ0 ,

where (ρ0, ϕ0, z0) are the cylindrical coordinates of r0, and the result is

Recurrence relations have been derived for the Cmn,mn coe cients [150]. The derivation is simple for the case of axial translation and positive m. Using the integral representation (B.60) (or (B.63)) and the recurrence relations for
the normalized associated Legendre functions (A.15) and (A.16), give |
