The last term is a function only of z,while the other
two terms do not contain z. Therefore the last term is
a constant and the sum of the first two terms is minus
the same constant. Notice that neither of the first two
terms is constant alone since both contain r.

We can see a physical reason here for choosing the
separation constant (k 2 ) to be negative. As t We can find the possible values of k from the condition

R(r) = C1 J0 (r) + C2 Y0 (r)
The R(r) function must be bounded at r = 0, so it
follows that C2 = 0, Hence:
R(r) = C1 J0 (r)
