A method is described for evaluating integrals of the form
integral(0)(infinity) sech (pi x/2 mu) ln [cosh x - cos(m mu)/cosh x - cos(
n mu)]dx
which arise in treating certain statistical mechanical models by means of t
he Bethe ansatz (quantum inverse scattering) technique. We specify which in
tegrals of this class can be expressed in closed form, along with their val
ues and evaluate some generalizations.
