Abstract
The structure of the sources of a gravitational field in Schwarzchild and Kerr spaces is investigated using the method of geodesic curvature. The curvature is calculated in Schwarzchild space for an Isotropie and time-like congruence and in Kerr space for two Isotropie congruences. An analysis of the curvature is made.
