Strong gravity Lense-Thirring Precession in Kerr and Kerr-Taub-NUT spacetimes
arXiv:1304.6936 · doi:10.1088/0264-9381/31/7/075006
Abstract
An exact expression derived in the literature for the rate of dragging of inertial frames (Lense-Thirring (LT) precession) in a general stationary spacetime, is reviewed. The exact LT precession frequencies for Kerr, Kerr-Taub-NUT and Taub-NUT spacetimes are explicitly derived. Remarkably, in the case of the zero angular momentum Taub-NUT spacetime, the frame-dragging effect is shown {\it not} to vanish, when considered for spinning test gyroscopes. The result becomes sharper for the case of vanishing ADM mass of that spacetime. We clarify how our results are consistent with claims in the recent literature of null orbital plane precession for NUT spacetimes.
