Abstract/Media

In this talk, I will discuss the relation between Killing spinors, symmetry operators and conserved quantities. For the case of Maxwell test fields on the Kerr spacetime, the Killing spinor can be used to construct conserved currents not related to Noether currents, as well as higher order conserved tensors.
