Abstract
An inversion transformation applied to an inertial observer is used to generate a nonstatic conformally flat geometry in spherical coordinates. A static observer in the new geometry is uniformly accelerating with respect to the inertial one and vice versa, but its acceleration undergoes the transformation , where is a constant. A nongeodesic congruence of a static observer has a scalar expansion which grows linearly with time but the acceleration is proportional to , as for the classical rotation.
