Lorentz covariance and the Kerr-Newman geometry

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev., D; (United States)
;
It has been shown that the full Einstein field equations may be linearized and written in Lorentz-covariant form if the metric is of the Kerr-Schild form. It is here remarked that the Maxwell and Hamilton-Jacobi equations and also a restricted form of the Dirac equation have similar properties.
