I also tried changing the integration from a to a generic M but the result is the same. From Gradshteyn Ryzhik I know this is equal to EllipticF(...,...), should I doubt the tables of Gradshteyn Ryzhik or is it common that Mathematica can't do integrals like this one? | |

Seems to work OK for the indefinite integral. And the result can be evaluated at a and Infinity using the Limit function
