Physics:Gravitational soliton

From HandWiki
Short description: Wave in general relativity

A gravitational soliton is a soliton solution of the Einstein field equation. It can be separated into two kinds, a soliton of the vacuum Einstein field equation generated by the Belinski–Zakharov transform, and a soliton of the Einstein–Maxwell equations generated by the Belinski-Zakharov-Alekseev transform.[1]
