The time dilation at each radius is defined by two factors. One is indeed the Schwarzschild metric of the inner "smaller planet" (discounting the outer shell). The other is the outer shell. For example, the time dilation just outside a thin massive shell is Schwarzschild while the time dilation everywhere inside is the same as just outside. See: arxiv.org/abs/1203.4428 - While gravity at the center is zero, a bit counter intuitively the time dilation there is maximal. | |
