Abstract

The separability of the massive Dirac equation in a rotating Kerr black hole background in horizon-penetrating advanced Eddington-Finkelstein-type coordinates is shown. To this end, the Kerr spacetime is described in the framework of the Newman-Penrose formalism by a local Carter tetrad, and the Dirac wave functions are given on a spin bundle in a chiral Newman-Penrose dyad representation. ...
