SOME PROPERTIES OF THE KERR SOLUTION TO LOW ENERGY STRING THEORY

arXiv:hep-th/9504139 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.52.5826

Abstract

The Kerr solution to axidilaton gravity is analyzed in the Debney--Kerr--Schild formalism. It is shown that the Kerr principal null congruence retains its property to be geodesic and shear free, however, the axidilatonic Kerr solution is not algebraically special. A limiting form of this solution is considered near the ring-like Kerr singularity. This limiting solution coincides with the field around a fundamental heterotic string obtained by Sen.
