Abstract:

We present the NUT generalization of the Curzon metric with its multipole extension. The Schwarzschild quadrupole potential in the prolate spheroidal coordinates turns out to cancel the quadrupole moment of a NUT-Curzon particle. It is also shown that this space-time admits closed time-like curves, whereas the NUT extension of a rod, unless its mass is made negative, does not admit such paradoxical curves
