N2 - The Lanczos Potential is a theoretical useful tool to find the conformal Weyl curvature tensor C abcd of a given relativistic metric. In this paper we find the Lanczos potential L abc for the van Stockung vacuum gravitational field. Also, we show how the wave equation can be combined with spinor methods in order to find this important three covariant index tensor.
