  One of the numerous results of the Theory of General Relativity is the
appearance of Gravimagnetism, described already by Thirring and Lense in 1918

  This article presents a simple classical analogy to bring the description of
Gravimagnetism within the reach of beginners. The article describes a classical
model calculation on the level of undergraduate students and mentions the
situation of the modern experiment.
