摘要
According to General Relativity, there are factors like mass, rotation, charge and presence of Cosmological constant that can influence the path of light ray. Apart from these factors, many authors have also reported the influence of gravitomagnetism on the path of light ray. In this study we have discussed the effect of a rotating Kerr-Taub-NUT body where the strength of the gravitomagnetic monopole is represented by the NUT factor or magnetic mass. We use the null geodesic of photon method to obtain the deflection angle of light ray for a Kerr-Taub-NUT body in equatorial plane upto the fourth order term. Our study shows that the NUT factor has a noticeable effect on the path of the light ray. By considering the magnetism to be zero, the expression of bending angle gets reduced to the Kerr bending angle. However, we obtained a non-zero bending angle for a hypothetical massless, magnetic body.
