Radiative spacetimes
arXiv:gr-qc/0201010
Abstract
The question of existence of general, asymptotically flat radiative spacetimes and examples of explicit classes of radiative solutions of Einstein's field equations are discussed in the light of some new developments. The examples are cylindrical waves, Robinson-Trautman and type N spacetimes and especially boost-rotation symmetric spacetimes representing uniformly accelerated particles or black holes.
