# scipy.special.y1p_zeros

scipy.special.y1p_zeros(nt, complex=False)

  Compute nt zeros of Bessel derivative Y1’(z), and value at each zero.

  The values are given by Y1(z1) at each z1 where Y1’(z1)=0.

  Parameters:
    nt int

      Number of zeros to return

    complex bool, default False

      Set to False to return only the real zeros; set to True to return only the complex zeros with negative real part and positive imaginary part. Note that the complex conjugates of the latter are also zeros of the function, but are not returned by this routine.

  Returns:
    z1pn ndarray

      Location of nth zero of Y1’(z)

    y1z1pn ndarray

      Value of derivative Y1(z1) for nth zero

  Examples

  Compute the first four roots of \(Y_1'\) and the values of \(Y_1\) at these roots.

      >>> import numpy as np
      >>> from scipy.special import y1p_zeros
      >>> y1grad_roots, y1_values = y1p_zeros(4)
      >>> with np.printoptions(precision=5):
      ...     print(f"Y1' Roots: {y1grad_roots}")
      ...     print(f"Y1 values: {y1_values}")
      Y1' Roots: [ 3.68302+0.j  6.9415 +0.j 10.1234 +0.j 13.28576+0.j]
      Y1 values: [ 0.41673+0.j -0.30317+0.j  0.25091+0.j -0.21897+0.j]

  `y1p_zeros` can be used to calculate the extremal points of \(Y_1\) directly. Here we plot \(Y_1\) and the first four extrema.

      >>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
      >>> from scipy.special import y1, yvp
      >>> y1_roots, y1_values_at_roots = y1p_zeros(4)
      >>> real_roots = y1_roots.real
      >>> xmax = 15
      >>> x = np.linspace(0, xmax, 500)
      >>> x[0] += 1e-15
      >>> fig, ax = plt.subplots()
      >>> ax.plot(x, y1(x), label=r'$Y_1$')
      >>> ax.plot(x, yvp(1, x, 1), label=r"$Y_1'$")
      >>> ax.scatter(real_roots, np.zeros((4, )), s=30, c='r',
      ...            label=r"Roots of $Y_1'$", zorder=5)
      >>> ax.scatter(real_roots, y1_values_at_roots.real, s=30, c='k',
      ...            label=r"Extrema of $Y_1$", zorder=5)
      >>> ax.hlines(0, 0, xmax, color='k')
      >>> ax.set_ylim(-0.5, 0.5)
      >>> ax.set_xlim(0, xmax)
      >>> ax.legend(ncol=2, bbox_to_anchor=(1., 0.75))
      >>> plt.tight_layout()
      >>> plt.show()
