Jun 3, 2011 at 14:26 comment added David Hansen Believe it or not, the integrand is a quotient of products of $\Gamma$-functions, integrated over a vertical line in the complex plane, and the integral pops out after a clever use of the Plancherel theorem for Mellin transforms.

Jun 3, 2011 at 12:23 comment added Gerry Myerson You've asked about the intuition behind Ramanujan's formulas before. I doubt you'll get a better answer this time, but maybe someone will prove me wrong.
Jun 3, 2011 at 12:14 comment added Suvrit The formula you cite is incorrect; please double check--(b+1 in second term, instead of b+2)
Jun 3, 2011 at 11:50 comment added Charles Matthews I think you should read up on Ramanujan some more. There is really not much percentage in taking a formula like this in isolation and brainstorming some queries about it.
Jun 3, 2011 at 10:42 comment added Andrey Rekalo I really think you're asking three separate questions here. A split might not be such a bad idea.
