We use the zeta function formalism, and the results agree with what one would obtain using the angular momentum cutoff method based on radial WKB. The final expression is numerically equal to an alternative expression derived in a Feynman diagrammatic approach, but is considerably simpler.21 pages, uses axodraw.styHigh Energy Physics - TheoryHigh Energy Physics - PhenomenologyMathematical PhysicsFunctional determinants for radial operatorstext
