Abstract
We present a stationary axisymmetric solution of the Einstein vacuum equations which could represent the exterior gravitational field of a rotating mass. The solution possesses all multipole moments, the Zipoy-Voorhees parameter, and two arbitrary parameters resulting from two rank-zero Hoenselaers-Kinnersley-Xanthopoulos transformations.Keywords
