Abstract

The Reissner-Nordström (RN) solution is obtained from the Schwarzschild solution by a method due to Teixeira, Wolk, and Som (TWS). It then follows that the mass parameter, m, of the RN solution is inseparably connected with the charge parameter, q, and m = 0 only when q = 0. It is thus suggested that the TWS method picks out, from among all possible RN solutions, just those of physical interest.
