Using the Kerr--Schild decomposition of the metric tensor that employs the algebraically special nature of the Kerr--Newman spacetime family, we calculate the energy--momentum tensor. The latter turns out to be a well defined tensor distribution with disc-like support.

Distributional energy - momentum tensor of the extended Kerr geometry
We generalize previous work on the energy - momentum tensor distribution of the Kerr geometry by extending the manifold structure into the negative mass region. Since the extension of the flat part…
Boosting the Kerr geometry in an arbitrary direction
We construct ultrarelativistic Kerr geometries from their distributional energy - momentum tensors. The latter are obtained by boosting Kerr's distributional energy - momentum tensor in arbitrary…
