Rational extension of Newton diagram for the positivity of {}₁F₂ hypergeometric functions and Askey-Szeg\"o problem

We present a rational extension of Newton diagram for the positivity of ${}_1F_2$ generalized hypergeometric functions. As an application, we give upper and lower bounds for the transcendental roots $\beta(\alpha)$ of \begin{align*} \int_0^{j_{\alpha, 2}} t^{-\beta} J_\alpha(t) dt = 0\qquad(-1<\alpha\le 1/2), \end{align*} where $j_{\alpha, 2}$ denotes the second positive zero of Bessel function $J_\alpha$.
