This paper explores a thin shell of ideal fluid surrounding a Kerr black hole assuming a slow rotation and retaining only first order terms of expansion in angular momentum. It is shown that a physically feasible shell rotates rigidly in this approximation and that the interior black hole mass is constrained by other parameters of the system. Furthermore, it is shown that the local inertial frames are "dragged" by the shell as the shell radius approaches the gravitational radius, which is similar to results of studies considering a flat interior.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
