A new proof of Watson's theorem for the series 3F2(1)

We give a new proof of the classical Watson theorem for the summation of a 3F2 hypergeometric series of unit argument. The proof relies on the two well-known Gauss summation theorems for the 2F1 function

A derivation of two transformation formulas contiguous to that of Kummer’s second theorem via a differential equation approach

The purpose of this note is to provide an alternative proof of two transformation formulas contiguous to that of Kummer’s second transformation for the confluent hypergeometric function 1F1 using a differential equation approach
