Superconductor specific heat capacity












0












$begingroup$


I would like to obtain expression for heat capacity jump of superconductor. During calculation, I can not deal with the followiwng integral:
$$int_{0}^{infty}frac{dx}{x^2}left(frac{1}{cosh^2 x}-frac{tanh{x}}{x}right),$$
which comes from the expression for gap near $T_c$. My question is how to evaluate this integral. I tried to calculated residues of
$$f(z)=frac{z-sinh zcosh z}{z^3cosh^2z}$$
and use Cauchy theorem. But it was unsuccesful. The desired answer is $7zeta(3)/(8pi^2)$

    Are you sure that this integral is correct? It is divergent at x = 0.

    @Gec hm, I have checked it with Wolfram and there is the finite answer wolfram

    The integral in this topic is different from that given to Wolfram.

    Extending Gec's comment, this is what Wolfram says about the posted integral. Either way, might Mathematics be better suited for the math question?
