Obtaining a class of type O pure radiation metrics with a negative cosmological...
Edgar, S. Brian; Ramos, M. P. MachadoUsing the generalised invariant formalism we derive a class of conformally flat spacetimes whose Ricci tensor has a pure radiation and a Ricci scalar component. The method used is a development of the methods used earlier for pure radiation spacetimes of Petrov types O and N respectively. In this paper we demonstrate how to handle, in the generalised invariant formalism, spacetimes with isotropy freedom and ric...
Type O pure radiation metrics with a cosmological constant
Edgar, S. Brian; Ramos, M. P. MachadoIn this paper we complete the integration of the conformally flat pure radiation spacetimes with a non-zero cosmological constant $\Lambda$, and $\tau \ne 0$, by considering the case $\Lambda +\tau\bar\tau \ne 0$. This is a further demonstration of the power and suitability of the generalised invariant formalism (GIF) for spacetimes where only one null direction is picked out by the Riemann tensor. For these ...
Obtaining a class of type N pure radiation metrics using invariant operators
Ramos, M. P. Machado; Edgar, S. BrianWe develop further the integration procedure in the generalised invariant formalism, and demonstrate its efficiency by obtaining a class of Petrov type N pure radiation metrics without any explicit integration, and with comparatively little detailed calculations. The method is similar to the one exploited by Edgar and Vickers when deriving the general conformally flat pure radiation metric. A major addition t...
