On the gravitational field of a charged particle

  • Published:
Acta Physica Academiae Scientiarum Hungaricae

Abstract

In this paper the most general spherically symmetric metric, recently defined bySynge in Kruskal coordinates, is considered and Einstein—Maxwell equations are imposed which culminates in a prescription for building the most general solutions. The Reissner — Nordström solution is shown to be a special case.
