Description
In this work, we studied the Schwarzschild solution to the Einstein equations and replicated previously obtained results in order to create a baseline to use on the study of the q-metric. In the q-metric, the curvature Kretschmann scalar and the radial null geodesics on the equatorial plane were studied in order to reach the tortoise coordinate and null coordinate transformations.
