Abstract

A metric of the Kerr-Schild type is derived which contains four arbitrary functions of time. It is a generalization of Vaidya's shining-star metric, and permits arbitrary acceleration of the source.Received 16 June 1969DOI:https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRev.186.1335©1969 American Physical Society
