We consider the motion of a charged spinning test/probe particle -- governed by the Mathisson-Papapetrou-Dixon equations with generic, adiabatic, and conservative spin- and field-induced multipole moments -- in a background $\sqrt{\text{Kerr}}$ field on flat spacetime: the electromagnetic field of a charged spinning ring-disk singularity obtained from the $G\to 0$ limit of the Kerr-Newman solution for a charged spinning black hole. We investigate the existence of two extra hidden constants of motion, analogous to the Carter constant (for geodesic motion in a Kerr spacetime, or for its spinning-probe generalization) and R\"udiger's linear-in-spin constant for a spinning probe in a Kerr background. We find that these two constants exist only when the Wilson coefficients parameterizing the probe's multipole structure take the particular values corresponding to spin-exponentiation of the effective Compton amplitudes through second order in spin.

    In the root-Kerr model, integrability holds to all spin orders at first order in probe charge with Newman-Janis vertices but extends only to spin-squared at second order and fails at spin-cubic, with asymptotic conser...

    In the root-Kerr probe model, integrability holds to all spin orders at leading probe charge under Newman-Janis vertices but fails at spin-cubic order at second charge order and cannot be restored by further action de...
