Analytic properties of relativistic, rotating bodies

  • 1. Institute of Theoretical Physics, Department of Physics, Stanford University

Description

The initial-value equations of general relativity for a slowly and uniformly rotating, homogeneous, momentarily stationary body are integrated exactly. Analytic formulae for the total mass, baryon number, and angular momentum of such a body are found
