1209.6126 (Francisco Frutos-Alfaro et al.)

Metric of a Slow Rotating Body with Quadrupole Moment from the Erez-Rosen Metric    [PDF]

Francisco Frutos-Alfaro, Edwin Retana-Montenegro, Iván Cordero-García, Oscar Ulloa-Esquivel
A metric representing a slow rotating object with quadrupole moment is obtained using the Newman-Janis formalism to include rotation into the weak limit of the Erez-Rosen metric. This metric is intended to tackle relativistic astrometry and gravitational lensing problems in which a quadrupole moment has to be taken into account.
