Einstein–Rosen metric
The Einstein–Rosen metric is an exact solution of Einstein's field equation. It was derived by Albert Einstein and Nathan Rosen in 1937.[1] It is the first exact solution of Einstein's equation that described the propagation of a gravitational wave.
This metric can be written in a form such that the Belinski–Zakharov transform applies, and thus has the form of a .
