On a stationary rotating mass with an arbitrary multipole structure. (English) Zbl 0693.53024
Summary: We present an asymptotically flat solution of the Einstein vacuum field equations which can describe correctly the exterior gravitational field of a rotating mass due to an infinite set of arbitrary multipole moments, and which reduces to the Schwarzschild metric in the static limit.
