| Abstract: | We present a new family of exact solutions for the Einstein equations that describes colliding
gravitational shock waves with cross polarization. In the limit of single polarization it reduces to a
family that, up to a transformation of its metric functions, is distinct from the well-known Szekeres
family. Furthermore, this family of solutions does not belong to the largest family found recently by
Ferrari, Ibanez, and Bruni. |
