Abstract
Solutions of the massless Rarita–Schwinger equation are found in a Kerr–Newman background. These solutions have arbitrary energy and arbitrary angular momentum about the axis of rotation, and in the eikonal limit define orbits that coincide with the principal null congruences. They are simple generalizations of corresponding solutions of the Dirac equations.Keywords
