Abstract

We discuss a direct construction of solitonic solutions in the Einstein-Maxwell system and analyze the connection of these with vacuum to electrovac transforms of the usual Belinskii-Zakharov vacuum solutions in the static and Einstein-Rosen waves cases.

Additional information

It should be noted that the construction of Belinskii is the same as the one that appears in the Kaluza-Klein ansatz, although in his case there is no direct interpretation to the scalarg 55 field
