Gyratons on direct product spacetimes |
We present and analyze exact solutions of algebraic type II on backgrounds which are a direct product of 2 spaces of constant curvature. This family of (electro)vacuum background spacetimes contains the Nariai, anti-Nariai and Plebanski-Hacyan universes of type D, or conformally flat Berttoti-Robinson and Minkowski spaces. The gyraton solutions are given in a simple Kundt metric form. They belong to the recently discussed class of spacetimes constant scalar invariants (CSI) of the curvature tensor. We show that the Einstein equations reduce to a set of linear equations on the transverse 2-space which can be explicitly solved using the Green functions. |
