NDLI: Colliding plane wave spacetimes

Description	Journal: Classical and Quantum Gravity When two plane waves collide, it is shown that the metric in the interaction region is only the product of two 2-spaces in certain restricted cases which include gravitational and electromagnetic waves. The form of the metric in the completely general case is here defined, and is illustrated for the case of colliding plane neutrino waves. Two classes of exact solutions, including the general case of pure neutrino waves, are given and some general properties are deduced.
