dc.description.abstract A complete analysis of the free-field massless spin-s equations (s=0, (1)/(2) ,1) in Kerr geometry is given. It is shown that in each case the separation constants occurring in the solutions obtained from a potential function can be characterized in an invariant way. This invariant characterization is given in terms of the Killing–Yano tensor admitted by Kerr geometry. en_US
