Gravitation and geometry, Vol. Hon. I. Robinson, Monogr. Textb. Phys. Sci. 4, 279-292 (1987).
[For the entire collection see Zbl 0649.00014.]
We present a single separable master equation for the maximal spin weight components of spin \(s=\pm 2,\pm 1,\pm\) zero rest-mass fields valid in the whole class of type D vacuum backgrounds with cosmological constant.
