Abstract

Static and spherically-symmetric solutions of the field equations in the bimetric theory of gravitation are obtained for isotropic and anisotropic distributions of matter when the physical metric admits a one-parameter group of conformal motions. The solutions agree with Einstein's general relativity for physical systems comparable to the size of the Universe, such as the solar system.
