Post-Newtonian expansion of a rotating disc of charged dust — •Stefan Palenta and Reinhard Meinel — Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena

We present an algorithm for obtaining the post-Newtonian expansion of the asymptotically flat solution to the Einstein-Maxwell equations describing a rigidly rotating disc of dust with constant specific charge. Explicit analytic expressions can be obtained up to fifth order. The results are used for a physical discussion of interesting limiting cases.
