| In this paper we shall present the results of numerical calculations of the superconducting characteristics (temperature dependence of the gap function and specific heat) for few different symmetries of the order parameter in relativistic theory of superconductivity. We shall discuss relevance of the results to describe newly discovered superconductors, particularly those containing heavy elements with strong spin-orbit coupling. |
