Massless spin-2 fields via lower spins
Abstract
Solutions of massless spin-2 field equations are written in terms of massless spin-32 Rarita-Schwinger fields and twistor spinors. It is shown that the proposed massless spin-2 fields satisfy the tracelessness and divergencelessness conditions and are in the kernel of the Laplace-Beltrami operator. A spin lowering procedure for special cases and a symmetry operator for massless spin-2 fields are also obtained. Description of massless spin-2 fields in terms of lower spin fields are found.
