In this paper, the problem of finding an axisymmetric stationary spacetime from a specified set of multipole moments, is studied. The condition on the multipole moments, for existence of a solution, is formulated as a convergence condition…
In this paper we give sufficient conditions on a sequence of multipole moments for a static spacetime to exist with precisely these moments. The proof is constructive in the sense that a metric having prescribed multipole moments up to a…
A general formulation of the relativistic multipole moments in axistationary electrovac spacetimes is introduced in a closed analytical form. We give a complete description of how the Ernst potentials on the symmetry axis can be completely…
The multipole moments of stationary axially symmetric vacuum or electrovacuum spacetimes can be expressed in terms of the power series expansion coefficients of the Ernst potential on the axis. In this paper we present a simpler, more…
In this article we study multipole moments of axisymmetric stationary asymptotically flat spacetimes. We show how the tensorial recursion of Geroch and Hansen can be reduced to a recursion of scalar functions. We also demonstrate how a…
This paper reviews work, largely due to W. Simon and the author, on multipole theory of static spacetimes. The main purpose is to make this work, which lies at the interface of potential theory, conformal geometry and general relativity,…
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…
In this paper the multipole moments of stationary asymptotically flat spacetimes are considered. We show how the tensorial recursion of Geroch and Hansen can be replaced by a scalar recursion on R^2. We also give a bound on the multipole…
Multipole moments in general relativity serve as a powerful tool for characterising the gravitational field. In this paper, we review the construction of the Geroch--Hansen multipole moments for stationary asymptotically flat vacuum…
The multipole moments method is not only an aid to understand the deformation of the space-time, but also an effective tool to solve the approximate solutions of the Einstein field equation. However, The usual multipole moments are…
Stationary, asymptotically flat spacetimes in general relativity can be characterized by their multipole moments. The moments have proved to be very useful tools for extracting information about the spacetime from various observables and,…
In this article, we derive source integrals for multipole moments in axially symmetric and static spacetimes. The multipole moments can be read off the asymptotics of the metric close to spatial infinity in a hypersurface, which is…
Following the method of Hoenselaers and Perj\'{e}s we present a new corrected and dimensionally consistent set of multipole gravitational and electromagnetic moments for stationary axisymmetric spacetimes. Furthermore, we use our results to…
We derive source integrals for multipole moments that describe the behaviour of static and axially symmetric spacetimes close to spatial infinity. We assume isolated non-singular sources but will not restrict the matter content otherwise.…
We provide a prescription to compute the gravitational multipole moments of compact objects for asymptotically de Sitter spacetimes. Our prescription builds upon a recent definition of the gravitational multipole moments in terms of Noether…
In this paper, we express the Newman--Penrose constants in terms of the Geroch--Hansen multipole moments for stationary spacetimes. These expressions are translation-invariant combinations of the multipole moments up to quadrupole order,…
In this article we present some recent results on identifying correctly the relativistic multipole moments of numerically constructed spacetimes, and the consequences that this correction has on searching for appropriate analytic spacetimes…
We prove the existence of static, asymptotically flat non-vacuum spacetimes with axial symmetry where the matter is modeled as a collisionless gas. The axially symmetric solutions of the resulting Einstein-Vlasov system are obtained via the…
A method is presented which allows the exact construction of conserved (i.e. divergence-free) current vectors from appropriate sets of multipole moments. Physically, such objects may be taken to represent the flux of particles or electric…
The FHP algorithm allows to obtain the relativistic multipole moments of a vacuum stationary axisymmetric solution in terms of coefficients which appear in the expansion of its Ernst's potential on the symmetry axis. First of all, we will…
