Abstract:
The separation of variables of the spin-3/2 field equation is performed in detail in the Schwarzschild geometry by means of the Newman Penrose formalism. The separated angular equations coincide with those relative to the Robertson-Walker space-time. The separated radial equations, that are much more entangled, can be reduced to four ordinary differential equations, each in one only radial function. As a consequence of the particular nature of the spin coefficients it is shown, by induction, that the massive field equations can be separated for arbitrary spin.
