Near a distinct centre of mass , write , where is the regular part evaluated at that centre and is analytic in local angular charts. Set , and . The metric becomesAll coefficients extend analytically across , with and two-dimensional determinant . The surface is null, its generator is , and the double zero of its squared norm gives zero surface gravity. The construction uses a constant so that the coordinate differential is integrable despite the nonspherical regular part of .
