With Einstein's inertial motion (free-falling and non-rotating relative to gyroscopes), geodesics for non-relativistic particles can intersect repeatedly, allowing one to compute the space-time curvature $R^{\hat{0} \hat{0}}$ exactly.…

We study the possible existence of a Newtonian regime of gravity in $1+1$ dimensions, considering metrics in both the Kerr-Schild and conformal forms. In the former case, the metric gives the exact solution of the Poisson equation in flat…
