Abstract
The solution of Einstein's field equations, , for a line element of the form is found. The density, ρ, may be a function of position, and the cosmological constant λ is not necessary in order to have a finite density. The solution reduces to that of Gödel if the variable α is constant. If the requirement for an empty universe is made (Rij = 0), the solution is conformally flat. The characteristics of the conformal curvature tensor are also obtained.
