Show affiliationsIt is explicitly shown that part of the C-metric spacetime inside the black hole horizon may be interpreted as the interaction region of two colliding plane waves with aligned linear polarization, provided the rotational coordinate is replaced by a linear one. This is a one-parameter generalization of the degenerate Ferrari–Ibáñez solution in which the focussing singularity is a Cauchy horizon rather than a curvature singularity.
