Dear Mathematica users
we just upgraded from version 4.2 to 5.0 (5.0.1)
and it seems that an some integrals are not solvabla any more
Here the input on the system
$Version
"5.0 for Sun Solaris (UltraSPARC) (November 26, 2003)"
Integrate[Cos[phi]/(x^2 - 2*x*r*Cos[phi] + r^2 + z^2)^(3/2),{phi, 0, 2*Pi}]
and the kernel just happily uses up CPU cycles with no result. I have
not found any hint on similar problems on the wri site and google
did not turn up information either.
Would anybody have a hint on what is going on.
With best regards
Andreas
