In general, the model of galaxy assumes a central huge black hole surrounded by a massive halo, disk or ring. In this paper, we investigate the gravitational field structure of a slowly rotating black hole with a dipolar halo, and the dynamics and chaos of test particles moving in it. Using Poincaré sections and fast Lyapunov indicator (FLI) in general relativity, we investigate chaos under different dynamical parameters, and find that the FLI is suitable for detecting chaos and even resonant orbits.
