Abstract

Description

A set of world-line deviation equations is derived in the framework of Mathisson-Papapetrou-Dixon description of pseudo-classical spinning particles. They generalize the geodesic deviation equations. We examine the resulting equations for particles moving in the space-time of a plane gravitational wave.
