SOURCE INTEGRALS FOR MULTIPOLE MOMENTS IN STATIC SPACETIMES

Gurlebeck, N.

In: WSPC - Proceedings (2013)

Abstract

We derive source integrals for multipole moments that describe the behavior of static
and axially symmetric spacetimes close to spatial infinity. We assume that the matter
distribution is isolated. We outline also some applications of these source integrals of the
asymptotic multipole moments.

Keywords

Multipole moments, static spacetimes, source integrals
