[QUOTE="t_r_theta_phi, post: 5507429, member: 597897"] What is the metric for the spacetime around an infinitely thin, infinitely long, uniform rod? Could it be written in the form ds[SUP]2[/SUP] = A(r)dt[SUP]2[/SUP] + B(r)dr[SUP]2[/SUP] + C(r)dh[SUP]2[/SUP] + r[SUP]2[/SUP]dθ[SUP]2[/SUP] where h is the coordinate along the rod and r is the radial coordinate, or would it be something more complicated?
