MacCallum, Malcolm; Kundt, Wolfgang
- Abstract
In this article, the authors discuss the theory of pure gravitational radiation and field equations of the general theory of relativity II. Topics discussed are the classification of conformal curvature using spinor techniques, the propagation of gravitational and electromagnetic radiation and Newman-Penrose (NP) technique of geometry. Other topics include several mathematical theorems, the propagation of electromagnetic and vacuum gravitational fields and tensor equations.
