On the radiation gauge for spin-1 perturbations in Kerr-Newman spacetime

Understand

We extend previous work [arXiv:1908.09095] to the case of Maxwell's equations with a source.

• Our work shows how to construct a retarded vector potential for the Maxwell field on the Kerr-Newman background in a radiation gauge.
• As in our previous work, the vector potential has a "reconstructed" term obtained from a Hertz potential solving Teukolsky's equation with a source, and a "correction" term which is obtainable by a simple integration along outgoing principal null rays.
• The singularity structure of our vector potential is discussed in the case of a point particle source.
