DESCRIPTION:\n	The Department of Mathematics and Statistics invites you to a
 ttend the Ph.D. Oral Defense of聽Mr. Anusar Farooqui.\n\n\n	ABSTRACT\n\nWe c
 onsider the effect of spacetime geometry on the intrinsic spin of test par
 ticles. Specifically\, we isolate and study the transformation of the intr
 insic spin of photons and Dirac particles as they propagate along geodesic
 s in Kerr geometry. Reference frames play a crucial role in the definition
  and measurement of the intrinsic spin of test particles. We show how obse
 rvers located in the outer geometry of Kerr black holes may exploit the sy
 mmetries of the geometry to set up reference frames using purely geometric
 \, locally-available information. Armed with these geometrically-defined r
 eference frames\, we investigate the geometrically-induced precession of t
 est particles in the outer geometry of Kerr black holes. We analyze the in
 trinsic spin of both photons propagating along null geodesics and Dirac pa
 rticles propagating along timelike geodesics.聽\n	\n	COMMITTEE MEMBERS\n\nCha
