Demanding that the incoming ray comes from infinity at means . The solution from part (iv) then gives
At the outgoing end write , where is first order in . Then
whereas
The condition therefore gives
Restoring units gives , the leading Schwarzschild light deflection.
Differentiation gives . With ,
The symmetry selects , the straight line at closest distance . Since
,
The two asymptotic zeros shift from to , so the deflection is , the Schwarzschild light deflection. It is tested by stellar deflection near the Sun and gravitational lensing.
