Spinning particles in the vacuum C metric

Spinning particles in the vacuum C metric

The motion of a spinning test particle given by the Mathisson–Papapetrou equations is studied on an exterior vacuum C metric background spacetime describing the accelerated motion of a spherically symmetric gravitational source. We consider circular orbits of the particle around the direction of acceleration of the source. The symmetries of …
