Abstract

We construct a scalar polynomial curvature invariant that transforms covariantly under a conformal transformation from any spherically symmetric metric. This invariant has the additional property that it vanishes on the event horizon of any black hole that is conformal to a static spherical metric. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
