Set builder notation for pairs?

I have a set $S$ of integers. I want to select the element pairs $(i,j)$ of it such that $i=2*j$ and order of elements does not matter. How can I show it with the set builder notation ?
$ (i,j) $ Is it correct and are there any ways to achieve this? Thanks in advance.

Why not simply $$(2i,i) mid i in S$$?

@ClementC. What if $2inotin S$

@RushabhMehta Good point. Then it's a bit less nice, indeed: $$(2i,i) mid i in Scap S^2$$

More, that both are in the set S: $~(2j,j): jin S, 2jin S$

@ClementC. I wouldn't really call that set builder notation

That is okay, although the use of words should be discouraged, and it can be compacted a bit more. Â Any of the following should be acceptable: $$(i,j)mid iin S, jin S, i=2j\(2j,j)mid jin S, 2jin S\(i,j) in S^2 mid i= 2 j \(2j,j)in S^2$$
Sometimes there is a trade off between compactness and comprehensibilty. Â Choose the version that you feel most clearly conveys the intended message.

It's better if you write: $ i= 2*j $
I don't think including $in S$ in the left part of the set builder notation is considered appropriate, but I am not too knowledgeable on the subject.

@RushabhMehta It should be $in S^2$, otherwise it is correctly placed. $~(i,j) in S^2 mid i= 2cdot j $ says: the set of pairs, $(i,j)$, drawn from the Cartesian square of $S$ such that $i$ equals twice $j$.
â Graham Kemp

It should be $in S^2$. And @RushabhMehta it is appropriate to put $in$ there(some would even say it should be there) as without it it is not guarantee to be a set
