Abstract

Using methods similar to those in a previous paper, (Dray and 't Hooft 1985), the authors construct exact solutions to Einstein's equation containing two colliding planar shells of matter which divide spacetime into four regions, three of which are flat. In the appendices they consider some more general cases.
