Alternatively, we investigate $G^\circ_{α,β}$, the Liouville form of $G_{α,β}$, which is a symmetric and nonnegative operator on $L^2(\R^2_+, drds)$. One of the main tools used is an integral transform which combines the Laguerre scaled transform and the Hankel transform. Self-adjoint extensions $\mathbb{G}^\circ_{α,β}$ of $G^\circ_{α,β}$ are defined in terms of this transform, and the spectral decompositions of them are given. Another approach to construct self-adjoint extensions of $G^\circ_{α,β}$, based on the technique of sesquilinear forms, is also presented and then the two approaches are compared.
