Motion of a vector particle in a curved space-time. III. Development of techniques of calculation

Abstract

The studies of influence of spin on a photon's motion in a Schwartzschild spacetime is continued. In the previous paper [13] the first order correction to the geodesic motion is found for the first half of the photon world line. The system of equations for the first order correction to the geodesic motion is reduced to a non-uniform linear ordinary differential equation. The equation obtained is solved by the standard method of integration of the Green function.
