Gravitational Waves
The wave is propagating along v, and so choosing la to be along this direction we set la = (0, 1, 0, 0). We can nd the other basis vectors in the tetrad using gab = la n b + lb n a m a m b m b m a (13.49)
The vector m a is spacelike, and so considering guv we can write guv = lu n v + lv n u = lv n u = n u nu = 1 Since n u is null, we can take this to be the only nonzero component and write n a = (0, 1, 0, 0). Moving to the spacelike vector, we take m x to be real and so using (13.49) we have gxx = l x n x + l x n x m x m x m x m x = 2m 2 x Using gx x = (1 v (v))2 this gives mx = 1 v (v) = mx 2
A similar exercise, taking m y to be complex, leads us to choose my = i 1 + v (v) 2 and m y = i 1 + v (v) 2
Summarizing, for this metric we choose the following null tetrad: la = (0, 1, 0, 0) , m a = 0, 0, m a = 0, 0, n a = (1, 0, 0, 0)

Raising indices with the metric, we nd l a = (1, 0, 0, 0) , m a = 0, 0, m a = 0, 0,

Now that we have the null tetrad, we can compute the spin coef cients. First noting that the only nonzero component of the rst null vector is the constant lv =1, looking at the Christoffel symbols (13.48) we can see that la;b = b la v ab lv = 0. This is, of course, what we expect for a pp-wave spacetime. This requirement dictates that several of the spin coef cients will vanish, in particular, = = = = 0. An exercise also shows that = = = = = = 0. Let s compute the two remaining spin coef cients. Starting with = n a;b m a m b , looking x y at (13.51) we observe that only terms involving m and m will be nonzero. Expanding the sum with this in mind, we nd = n a;b m a m b = n x;x m x m x + n x;y m x m y + n y;x m y m x + n y;y m y m y Recall that the covariant derivative is n a;b = b n a
