Abstract: The Fox function expression and the analytic expression for the concentration distribution of fractional anomalous diffusion caused by an instantaneous point source in n-dimensional space (n= 1, 2 or 3) are derived by means of the condition of mass conservation, the time-space similarity of the solution, Mellin transform and the properties of the Fox function. And the asymptotic behaviors for the solutions are also given.
