The theory of ordinary differential equations together with judicious use of boundary conditions and certain properties of higher transcendental functions is exploited to derive a useful analytical expression for the Coulomb-Yamaguchi Jost solution through an r-space approach to the problem. Note that the off-shell Jost solution is expressed in its maximal reduced form involving confluent and Gaussian hypergeometric functions. As an application of the Jost solution the off-shell T matrix is also expressed in terms of Gaussian hypergeometric functions.
