Abstract

The problem of the form of the flat metric in the Rosen bimetric theory is examined in the following work.

It is shown, on concrete examples, how necessary it is to write down the flat metric and solve the problem of finding the gravitational field in arbitrary non-inertial frame. It is shown also how to separate the pure gravitational effects from those connected with non-inertiality of the frame by way of comparing both metrics.
