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
