Abstract
Cylindrically symmetric fractional Helmholtz equation is analytically solved in an isotropic medium. Caputo's definition of the fractional derivative is followed at the solution approach. The general solution utilizes fractional Bessel functions attached to particular azimuthal and longitudinal exponents, it is represented in orthogonal and completeness basis likewise the ordinary form. The derived solution could be implemented at fractional modes of Bessel light as well as time-independent fractional diffusion.
