| Are the gravitational time dilation experienced by a test particle the
| same for these two setups?
|
| 1) A single gravitating body of mass M at a distance of R from the
| test particle ... tau = t sqrt(1 - 2GM/(Rc^2)).
|
| 2) A homogeneous shell of mass M of radius R, where the test particle
| is inside of the shell (doesn't need to be at the centre since dtau/dr
| = 0 inside).
|
| Thanks for any information.

Yes, of course. Now be a good boy and take your medicine.
