Using full Kerr geodesic ray tracing, the authors find that black hole spin affects pulsar light-bending delays only at the nanosecond level for stellar-mass companions, while supermassive companions produce millisecond delays and strong pulse profile distortion.

On the effect of the light bending phenomenon for a pulsar in a binary with a Kerr black hole
Using full Kerr geodesic ray tracing, the authors find that black hole spin affects pulsar light-bending delays only at the nanosecond level for stellar-mass companions, while supermassive companions produce millisecond delays and strong pulse profile distortion.
