Abstract

The Klein–Gordon equation for a massless scalar field is considered for an extended matter source in 2 + 1 dimensions. It is shown how a solution can be found using Whittaker functions and can be normalized in the standard manner. In the point source limit, the solution reduces to the usual expression in terms of Bessel functions.
