I have some problems with the integral $\iiint_T\sqrt{x^2+y^2}\ z^4e^{z^4} dx\ dy\ dz$ where $T=\{(x,y,z)\in\mathbb{R}^3:\sqrt{x^2+y^2}\leq z\leq 1\}$. I have to change it to spherical coordinates but... nothing.. can someone help me? Thanks

I suggest you convert to cylindrical coordinates: (x,y) -> (r,?) and z -> z.

The integral is equivalent to $\frac{z e^{z^4}}{4} - \xi_{4} \frac{\Gamma$$\frac{1}{4}, -z^4$$}{16}$ where $\xi_4$ is the 4-th root of unity.

In fact, this can be arbitrarily generalized for any exponent replaced by 4 in the given integral.

Assuming I have this right...

$\iiint_T\ \rho^2\sin(\phi)\sqrt{(\rho\sin(\phi)\cos(\theta)) ^2 + (\rho\sin(\phi)\sin(\theta))^2}\ {(\rho\cos(\phi))}^4e^{(\rho\cos(\phi))^4}\ d\theta d\phi d\rho$

And simplify? Or am I completely wrong?
