Pure-radiation gravitational fields with a simple twist and a Killing vector

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2008-11-26 v1

Abstract

Pure-radiation solutions are found, exploiting the analogy with the Euler- Darboux equation for aligned colliding plane waves and the Euler-Tricomi equation in hydrodynamics of two-dimensional flow. They do not depend on one of the spacelike coordinates and comprise the Hauser solution as a special subcase.
