# scipy.special.y1_zeros

scipy.special.y1_zeros(nt, complex=False)

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

  The derivatives are given by Y1’(z1) = Y0(z1) at each zero z1.

  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:
    z1n ndarray

      Location of nth zero of Y1(z)

    y1pz1n ndarray

      Value of derivative Y1’(z1) for nth zero

  Examples

  Compute the first 4 real roots and the derivatives at the roots of \(Y_1\):

      >>> import numpy as np
      >>> from scipy.special import y1_zeros
      >>> zeros, grads = y1_zeros(4)
      >>> with np.printoptions(precision=5):
      ...     print(f"Roots: {zeros}")
      ...     print(f"Gradients: {grads}")
      Roots: [ 2.19714+0.j  5.42968+0.j  8.59601+0.j 11.74915+0.j]
      Gradients: [ 0.52079+0.j -0.34032+0.j  0.27146+0.j -0.23246+0.j]

  Extract the real parts:

      >>> realzeros = zeros.real
      >>> realzeros
      array([ 2.19714133,  5.42968104,  8.59600587, 11.74915483])

  Plot \(Y_1\) and the first four computed roots.

      >>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
      >>> from scipy.special import y1
      >>> xmin = 0
      >>> xmax = 13
      >>> x = np.linspace(xmin, xmax, 500)
      >>> zeros, grads = y1_zeros(4)
      >>> fig, ax = plt.subplots()
      >>> ax.hlines(0, xmin, xmax, color='k')
      >>> ax.plot(x, y1(x), label=r'$Y_1$')
      >>> ax.scatter(zeros.real, np.zeros((4, )), s=30, c='r',
      ...            label=r'$Y_1$_zeros', zorder=5)
      >>> ax.set_ylim(-0.5, 0.5)
      >>> ax.set_xlim(xmin, xmax)
      >>> plt.legend()
      >>> plt.show()

  Compute the first 4 complex roots and the derivatives at the roots of \(Y_1\) by setting `complex=True`:

      >>> y1_zeros(4, True)
      (array([ -0.50274327+0.78624371j,  -3.83353519+0.56235654j,
               -7.01590368+0.55339305j, -10.17357383+0.55127339j]),
       array([-0.45952768+1.31710194j,  0.04830191-0.69251288j,
              -0.02012695+0.51864253j,  0.011614  -0.43203296j]))
