Dual Metrics for a Class of Radiative Spacetimes

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2009-10-31 v2

Abstract

Second rank non-degenerate Killing tensors for some subclasses of spacetimes admitting parallel null one-planes are investigated. Lichn\'erowicz radiation conditions are imposed to provide a physical meaning to spacetimes whose metrics are described through their associated second rank Killing tensors. Conditions under which the dual spacetimes retain the same physical properties are presented.
