The Schwarzschild-de Sitter spacetime is the spherically symmetric vacuum solution with positive cosmological constant. In static coordinates its metric function is , with a black-hole horizon and a cosmological horizon when .
For , , and , a radial timelike geodesic has . The radial geodesic equation gives , including at a turning point. This is a second derivative of the areal radius with respect to proper time; the geodesic's four-acceleration still vanishes. In the slow-motion weak-field limit, restoring units gives .
