Abstract
With generality of complex relativity, the classical theory of the electromagnetic Hertz potentials is outlined in terms of spinors and forms. Particularly interesting are D (0,1) and D (1,0) null Hertz potentials. Then, a new spinorial approach to heavens (H spaces) is proposed, which reveals in their structure the presence of the left null gravitational Hertz potential [of the type D (0,2)]. The relevant hints which follow from our results and concern the structure of the most general solutions of the Einstein vacuum equations (type G⊗G), are discussed, in particular on the level of the linearized theory.This publication has 20 references indexed in Scilit:
