Sumario:Among the known exact solutions of Einstein's vacuum field equations the Manko–Novikov and the Quevedo–Mashhoon metrics might be suitable ones for the description of the exterior gravitational field of some real non-collapsed body. A new proposal to represent such exterior field is the stationary q-metric. In this contribution, we computed by means of the Fodor–Hoenselaers–Perjés formalism the lowest 10 relativistic multipole moments of these metrics. Corresponding moments were derived for the static vacuum solutions of Gutsunayev–Manko and Hernández–Martín. A direct comparison between the multipole moments of these non-isometric space–times is given.
