We study the possibility of pure general relativistic models without exotic matter to describe the observed flattening of the rotation curves for stars moving in circular orbits in a galaxy disk. In particular we consider the dragging of inertial frames (rotation of the source) and the presence of a Taub–NUT (Newman–Unti–Tamburino) “charge”, the gravitational equivalent to a magnetic monopole in electrodynamics.
