Abstract
A wide class of exact solutions of the stationary Einstein-Maxwell equations characterized by a flat "background" three-space is obtained. The solutions can be interpreted as the external gravitational and electromagnetic fields of one or more spinning sources with unit specific charge in stationary configuration.Keywords
