Abstract: In this paper we present the distinguished (d-) Riemannian geometry (in the sense of nonlinear connection, Cartan canonical linear connection, together with its d-torsions and d-curvatures) for a possible Lagrangian inspired by optics in non-uniform media. The corresponding equations of motion are also exposed, and some particular solutions are given. For instance, we obtain as geodesic trajectories some circular helices (depending on an angular velocity omega), certain circles situated in some planes (ones are parallel with xOy, and other ones are orthogonal on xOy), or some straight lines which are parallel with the axis Oz. All these geometrical geodesics are very specific because they are completely determined by the non-constant index of refraction n(x).
