Abstract:

New general relativity predicts a static, isotropic spacetime quite different from the Schwarzschild spacetime of general relativity, unless one of the two unknown parameters, ε, is exactly zero. In this paper we study its structure as a Riemannian spacetime, paying special attentions to motions of test particles therein.
