Abstract: We exhibit timelike geodesic paths for a metric, introduced by Bonnor [11] and considered also by Steadman [13], and show that coordinate time runs backward along a portion of these geodesics.

Review text

It is shown that for Bonnor's rotating dust metric there exist time-like geodesics where the coordinate time runs backwards along portions of these geodesics. Numerical examples for spatially bounded quasi-periodic and unbounded geodesics are given.
