Key Points

  • Develop a systematic method to derive the relativistic equations of motion for spinning test particles in an arbitrary background gravitational field.
  • Formulated a mathematical derivation to calculate the trajectories of test particles endowed with internal spin.
  • Evaluated coordinate transformation properties to establish general relativistic invariance.
  • Derived the equations of motion specifically governing spinning test particles within curved spacetime.
  • Cast the resulting dynamical equations into a fully covariant mathematical form.

Abstract

Abstract A method for the derivation of the equations of motion of test particles in a given gravitational field is developed. The equations of motion of spinning test particles are derived. The transformation properties are discussed and the equations of motion are written in a covariant form.
