The Papapetrou equations and supplementary conditions
Abstract
Description
On the bases of the Papapetrou equations with various supplementary conditions and other approaches a comparative analysis of the equations of motion of rotating bodies in general relativity is made. The motion of a body with vertical spin in a circular orbit is considered. An expression for the spin-orbit force in a post-Newtonian approximation is investigated.
