Abstract

This Maple library (mla) file contains the NullRainich package. The NullRainich package contains 4 commands: ANT, NullElectrovacConditions, NullMaxwellField, PureRadiationCongruence.

ANT - Construct a null tetrad with a specified first leg.

NullElectrovacConditions - Compute the necessary and sufficient geometric conditions for a spacetime to be a null electrovacuum.

NullMaxwellField - Construct the null Maxwell field which is the source for a given null electrovacuum.

PureRadiationCongruence - Find the null 1-form whose square yields a given null Ricci tensor.

Installation Instructions

A worksheet illustrating the NullRainich package can be found here.
