Consider the integral
J = 0 e a x x μ d t = Γ ( μ + 1 ) a μ + 1 .
Let μ = i t, where i = 1 , for which
0 e a x x i t d t = 0 e a x e i t ln ( x ) d t = Γ ( i t + 1 ) a i t + 1
From this it is seen that
0 cos ( t ln ( x ) ) e a x d x = R ( Γ ( i t + 1 ) a i t + 1 ) = 1 a R ( e i t ln ( a ) Γ ( i t + 1 ) )
