Introduction to Einstein-Maxwell equations and the Rainich conditions

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2016-06-29 v1

Abstract

The first results of Einstein-Maxwell equations established by Raincih in 1925 are therefore called the Raincih conditions. Later the result was rediscovered by Misner and Wheeler in 1957 and made the basis of their geometrodynamics. The present survey will consider didactically the curvature of spacetime attributed to an electromagnetic field with conceptual and calculational details.
