Initial data for time-symmetric gravitational radiation using Regge calculus
Description
We apply Regge calculus to the construction of initial data for Brill waves: axisymmetric non-rotating vacuum solutions of Einstein's equation. The Regge calculus solutions are compared with those of the continuum theory, with encouraging results. (author)
