Abstract

Conditions are given on the metric of a space-time for it to admit a neutrino-gravitational field. The method described involves comparing the spin coefficients of a suitably defined tetrad of null vectors. It is used to obtain the class of space-times which admits a neutrino field or a non-null electromagnetic field. The classes of space-time which admit two different neutrino fields are also described.
