Abstract
A technique for constructing composite fluid sources for exterior rota ting (stationary and axisymmetric) gravitational fields is presented. The rotating field is only required to have a static limit for which a source is known with the metric C-1 across the boundary. The techniqu e is applied to construct a composite fluid source for the rotating Cu rzon metric given by Hernandez-Pastora, Manko and Martin. Matter const ituting the source is shown to satisfy energy conditions, and hence th e source is physically reasonable.
