✦ Synopsis
The exact analytical result for a class of integrals involving (associated) Legendre polynomials of complicated argument is presented. The method employed can in principle be generalized to integrals involving other special functions. This class of integrals also proves useful in the electrostatic problems in which dielectric spheres are involved, which is of importance in modeling the dynamics of biological macromolecules. In fact, with this solution, a more robust foundation is laid for the Generalized Born method in modeling the dynamics of biomolecules.
