    The space of symmetric positive-definite matrices appears in many applications and many metrics are defined by means of it. In the present paper, the \(\beta\)-power potential function is considered along with its Hessian, thus providing a new family of Riemannian metrics. The expressions for the geodesics and for the Riemannian distance are derived. Further, the relationship between the power mean (and the geometric mean) and the barycenter is studied.
