N2  - We examine space-times which are described by a metric of the form ds2 = V2(X)dT2 - U2 (X)dX2 - dY2 - dZ2 in which V =V (X) and U = U(X) are continuous functions of X only and which admit diffeomorphisms into Minkowski space-time. It is shown that such space-times are associated with rigidly accelerating frames of reference by appeal to the notion of a fundamental observer. The condition for the existence of the diffeomorphism is derived from first principles and some special cases of coordinates are discussed.
