For a given a and r and starting from θ0=π/2 the required initial orbital inclination angle δ0 for a photon's circular orbit can be found^[1] by setting

${\displaystyle {\rm {{\frac {\zeta _{1}+\zeta _{2}-\zeta _{3}}{\zeta _{4}}}=0}}}$

and solving for δ0. The real solutions of the polynomial give one possible orbit in the positive poloidial direction, and one other in the opposite z-direction (since the metric is axially symmetric the sign of the coaxial angular momentum can be both). The shorthand terms are:

${\displaystyle {\rm {\zeta _{1}=a^{4}\ (r-1)+a^{2}\ r\ (r\ (3\ r-5)+6)+2\ (r-3)\ r^{4}}}}$

${\displaystyle {\rm {\zeta _{2}=4\ a\ {\sqrt {a^{2}+(r-2)\ r}}\ \left(a^{2}+3\ r^{2}\right)\ \cos(\delta )}}}$

${\displaystyle {\rm {\zeta _{3}=a^{2}\ (r+3)\ \left(a^{2}+(r-2)\ r\right)\ \cos(2\ \delta )}}}$

${\displaystyle {\rm {\zeta _{4}=2\ r\ \left(a^{2}+(r-2)\ r\right)\ \left(a^{2}\ (r+2)+r^{3}\right)}}}$

All photon-orbits have a constant Boyer-Lindquist-radius.^{[2] [3]}

All formulas come in natural units:

${\displaystyle {\rm {G=M=c=1}}}$

Coordinate time t by proper time τ (dt/dτ), where τ becomes the affine parameter λ for massless particles:

${\displaystyle {\rm {{\dot {t}}={\frac {2\ E\ r\ \left(a^{2}+r^{2}\right)-2\ a\ L_{z}\ r}{\Delta \ \Sigma }}+E={\frac {\varsigma }{\sqrt {1-v^{2}}}}}}}$

Radial coordinate time derivative (dr/dτ):

${\displaystyle {\rm {{\dot {r}}={\frac {\Delta \ p_{r}}{\Sigma }}}}}$

Time derivative of the covariant momentum's r-component (pr/dτ):

${\displaystyle {\rm {{\dot {p}}_{r}={\frac {(r-1)\left(\mu \ \left(a^{2}+r^{2}\right)-k\right)+2\ E^{2}\ r\left(a^{2}+r^{2}\right)-2\ a\ E\ L_{z}+\Delta \ \mu \ r}{\Delta \ \Sigma }}-{\frac {2\ p_{r}^{2}\ (r-1)}{\Sigma }}}}}$

Relation to the local velocity:

${\displaystyle {\rm {p_{r}={\frac {v_{r}}{\sqrt {1+\mu \ v^{2}}}}{\sqrt {\frac {\Sigma }{\Delta }}}}}}$

Latitudinal time derivative (dθ/dτ):

${\displaystyle {\rm {{\dot {\theta }}={\frac {p_{\theta }}{\Sigma }}}}}$

Time derivative of the covariant momentum's θ-component (pθ/dτ):

${\displaystyle {\rm {{\dot {p}}_{\theta }={\frac {\sin \theta \ \cos \theta \left({\frac {L_{z}^{2}}{\sin ^{4}\theta }}-a^{2}\left(E^{2}+\mu \right)\right)}{\Sigma }}}}}$

Relation to the local velocity:

${\displaystyle {\rm {p_{\theta }={\frac {v_{\theta }\ {\sqrt {\Sigma }}}{\sqrt {1+\mu \ v^{2}}}}}}}$

Longitudinal time derivative (dФ/dτ):

${\displaystyle {\rm {{\dot {\phi }}={\frac {2\ a\ E\ r+L_{z}\ \csc ^{2}\theta \ (\Sigma -2r)}{\Delta \ \Sigma }}}}}$

Time derivative of the covariant momentum's Ф-component (pФ/dτ):

${\displaystyle {\rm {{\dot {p}}_{\phi }=0}}}$

Carter-constant:

${\displaystyle {\rm {Q=p_{\theta }^{2}+\cos ^{2}\theta \left(a^{2}(\mu ^{2}-E^{2})+{\frac {L_{z}^{2}}{\sin ^{2}\theta }}\right)=a^{2}\ (\mu ^{2}-E^{2})\ \sin ^{2}I+L_{z}^{2}\ \tan ^{2}I}}}$

Carter k:

${\displaystyle {\rm {k=a^{2}\left(E^{2}+\mu \right)+L_{z}^{2}+Q}}}$

Total energy:

${\displaystyle {\rm {E={\sqrt {{\frac {(\Sigma -2\ r)\left({\dot {\theta }}^{2}\ \Delta \ \Sigma +{\dot {r}}^{2}\ \Sigma -\Delta \ \mu \right)}{\Delta \ \Sigma }}+{\dot {\phi }}^{2}\ \Delta \ \sin ^{2}\theta }}={\sqrt {\frac {\Delta \ \Sigma }{(1+\mu \ v^{2})\ \chi }}}+\Omega \ L_{z}}}}$

Angular momentum on the Ф-axis:

${\displaystyle {\rm {L_{z}={\frac {\sin ^{2}\theta \ ({\dot {\phi }}\ \Delta \ \Sigma -2\ a\ E\ r)}{\Sigma -2\ r}}={\frac {v_{\phi }\ {\bar {R}}}{\sqrt {1+\mu \ v^{2}}}}}}}$

with the radius of gyration

${\displaystyle {\rm {{\bar {R}}={\sqrt {\frac {\chi }{\Sigma }}}\ \sin \theta }}}$

Frame Dragging angular velocity (dФ/dt):

${\displaystyle {\rm {\omega ={\frac {2\ a\ r}{\chi }}}}}$

Gravitational time dilation (dt/dτ):

${\displaystyle {\rm {\varsigma ={\sqrt {\frac {\chi }{\Delta \ \Sigma }}}}}}$

Local velocity on the r-axis:

${\displaystyle {\rm {{\frac {v_{r}}{\sqrt {1+\mu \ v^{2}}}}={\dot {r}}\ {\sqrt {\frac {\Sigma }{\Delta }}}}}}$

Local velocity on the θ-axis:

${\displaystyle {\rm {{\frac {v_{\theta }\ {\sqrt {\Sigma }}}{\sqrt {1+\mu \ v^{2}}}}={\dot {\theta }}\ \Sigma }}}$

Local velocity on the Ф-axis:

${\displaystyle {\frac {\rm {v_{\phi }}}{\sqrt {1+\mu \ {\rm {v^{2}}}}}}={\frac {\rm {L_{z}}}{\rm {{\bar {R}}_{\phi }}}}}$

with the cartesian coordinates:

${\displaystyle {\rm {x={\sqrt {r^{2}+a^{2}}}\sin \theta \ \cos \phi \ ,\ y={\sqrt {r^{2}+a^{2}}}\sin \theta \ \sin \phi \ ,\ z=r\cos \theta \quad }}}$

The observed velocity β is given by:

${\displaystyle {\rm {\beta ={\sqrt {(dx/dt)^{2}+(dy/dt)^{2}+(dz/dt)^{2}}}}}}$

The local escape velocity is given by the relation:

${\displaystyle {\rm {\varsigma =1/{\sqrt {1-v_{\rm {esc}}^{2}}}\ \to \ v_{\rm {esc}}={\sqrt {\varsigma ^{2}-1}}/\varsigma }}}$

Shorthand Terms:

${\displaystyle {\rm {\Sigma =a^{2}\cos ^{2}\theta +r^{2}\ ,\ \ \Delta =a^{2}+r^{2}-2r\ ,\ \ \chi =\left(a^{2}+r^{2}\right)^{2}-a^{2}\ \sin ^{2}\theta \ \Delta }}}$
