摘要
It is shown that in a type {2,2} solution of the Einstein vacuum field equations, which admits a two-index Killing spinor, a differential operator can be constructed that maps a solution of the Rarita-Schwinger equation into a solution of its complex conjugate. Furthermore, by considering the Plebanski-Demianski metric, which contains all the vacuum type {2,2} metrics, it is shown that the separable solutions of the Rarita-Schwinger equation are eigenfunctions of a certain differential operator with the Starobinsky constant as the eigenvalue.
