Scientific paper

We study the motion of neutral test particles along circular orbits in the Reissner-Nordstr\"om spacetime. We use the method of the effective potential with the constants of motion associated to the underlying Killing symmetries. A comparison between the black hole and naked singularity cases is performed. In particular we find that in the naked singularity case for $rQ^2/M$ and $1\sqrt{5}/2$ there are all stable circular orbits for $r>Q^2/M$.
