Multipole moments of stationary space-times
Abstract
Multipole moments are defined for stationary, asymptotically flat, source-free solutions of Einstein's equation. There arise two sets of multipole moments, the mass moments and the angular momentum moments. These quantities emerge as tensors at a point A ``at spatial infinity.'' They may be expressed as certain combinations of the derivatives at A of the norm and twist of the timelike Killing vector. In the Newtonian limit, the moments reduce to the usual multipole moments of the Newtonian potential. Some properties of these moments are derived, and, as an example, the multipole moments of the Kerr solution are discussed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
