You are right, simplification time tends to infinity. But the integral is tivial. Standard way: Put Sin[x]-> (Exp[I x]-Exp[-I x])/(2 I) and use Integrate[Exp[I n x] Exp[I m x], {x,0,2Pi}] especially if n and \rho are integers. Brute force: Calculate the indefinite integral (don't forget ";"!) f[x_]=Integrate[(Sin[x])^24 Exp[I n x], x]; f[2Pi]-f[0]//Together -((620448401733239439360000*I*(-1 + E^(2*I*n*Pi)))/ ((-24 + n)*(-22 + n)*(-20 + n)*(-18 + n)*(-16 + n)* (-14 + n)*(-12 + n)*(-10 + n)*(-8 + n)*(-6 + n)* (-4 + n)*(-2 + n)*n*(2 + n)*(4 + n)*(6 + n)*(8 + n)* (10 + n)*(12 + n)*(14 + n)*(16 + n)*(18 + n)*(20 + n)* (22 + n)*(24 + n))) Marco de Innocentis wrote: > > I am sorry, I made a silly mistake: rho was supposed to be part > of the exponential, so > > > Integrate [(Sin[x])^[2 rho] Exp[I n x],{x,0,2 Pi}] > > Thanks, > > Marco > > In article <8f559t$49c at smc.vnet.net>, > Marco de Innocentis <mdi11 at hotmail.com> wrote: > > > I need to calculate the following integral > > > > Integrate [(Sin[x])^2 rho Exp[I n x],{x,0,2 Pi}] > > > > as a function of the two parameters rho and n.
