TY - JOUR T1 - A spectral element/Laguerre coupled method to the elliptic Helmholtz problem on the half line AU - Q. Zhuang & C.

Rigorous analysis is carried out to establish the convergence of the method. Several numerical examples are provided to confirm the theoretical results. The advantage of this method is demonstrated by a numerical comparison with the pure Laguerre method.
