Towards a self-consistent relativistic model of the exterior gravitational field of rapidly rotating neutron stars

We present a self-consistent, relativistic model of rapidly rotating neutron stars describing their exterior gravitational field. This is achieved by matching the new solution of Einstein's field equations found recently by Manko et al. and the numerical results for the interior of neutron star...
