Tradition in a context of hyper-dynamic multicultural urban space
PublicationOd początku lat 70. Zjednoczone Emiraty Arabskie były miejscem gwałtownego rozowju gospodarczego, któremu towarzyszył równie dynamiczny wzrost urbanizacji, jak również wzrost populacji. Obecnie ponad 80% współczesnej populacji tego silnie zakorzenionego w tradycjach arabskich kraju to imigranci. Do kryzysu 2008 roku rozwój miast odbywał się praktycznie bez ograniczeń finansowych, jednak z rozmachu pojedyńczych budowli wykreowane...

Closed-form expression for the magnetic shielding constant of the relativistic hydrogenlike atom in an arbitrary discrete energy eigenstate: Application of the Sturmian expansion of the generalized Dirac–Coulomb Green function
PublicationWe present analytical derivation of the closed-form expression for the dipole magnetic shielding constant of a Dirac one-electron atom being in an arbitrary discrete energy eigenstate. The external magnetic field, by which the atomic state is perturbed, is assumed to be weak, uniform, and time independent. With respect to the atomic nucleus we assume that it is pointlike, spinless, motionless, and of charge Ze. Calculations are...
