Magnetizabilities of relativistic hydrogenlike atoms in some arbitrary discrete energy eigenstates

We present the results of numerical calculations of magnetizability ($χ$) of the relativistic one-electron atoms with a pointlike, spinless and motionless nuclei of charge $Ze$. Exploiting the analytical formula for $χ$ recently derived by us [P. Stefa{ń}ska, 2015], valid for an arbitrary discrete energy eigenstate, we have found the values of the magnetizability for the ground state and for the first and the second set of excited states (i.e.: $2s_{1/2}$, $2p_{1/2}$, $2p_{3/2}$, $3s_{1/2}$, $3p_{1/2}$, $3p_{3/2}$, $3d_{3/2}$, and $3d_{5/2}$) of the Dirac one-electron atom. The results for ions with the atomic number $1 \leqslant Z \leqslant 137$ are given in 14 tables. The comparison of the numerical values of magnetizabilities for the ground state and for each states belonging to the first set of excited states of selected hydrogenlike ions, obtained with the use of two different values of the fine-structure constant, i.e.: $α^{-1}=137.035 999 139$ (CODATA 2014) and $α^{-1}=137.035 999 074$ (CODATA 2010), is also presented.
