摘要
Mimicking the description of spinning particles in General Relativity, the Fermat Principle is extended to spinning photons. Linearization of the resulting Papapetrou-Souriau type equations yields the semiclassical model used recently to derive the "Optical Hall Effect" for polarized light (alias the "Optical Magnus Effect").
