The spherical Bessel function of the first kind is defined by $$j_{\nu}(z)=\sqrt{\dfrac{\pi}{2z}}J_{\nu + \frac{1}{2}}(z),$$ where $J_{\nu}$ denotes the Bessel function of the first kind.
Domain coloring of $j_0$.

Theorem
The following formula holds for non-negative integers $n$: $$j_n(z)=(-1)^nz^n \left( \dfrac{1}{z} \dfrac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}z} \right)^n \left( \dfrac{\sin z}{z} \right),$$ where $j_n$ denotes the spherical Bessel function of the first kind and $\sin$ denotes the sine function.
Proof
