New exact solution of the Einstein equations for a spinning mass

  • Note Brevi
  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento B (1971-1996)

Summary

A new exact asymptotically flat solution of the Einstein equations able to describe the exterior gravitational field of a stationary rotating mass is presented. It contains two independent parameters associated with the total mass and total angular momentum of the source, and reduces in the static limit to the Schwarzschild space-time.
