Résumé

Les équations d’Einstein-Maxwell, dans un espace-temps V admettant deux vecteurs de Killing de type espace qui commutent, font intervenir les composantes du tenseur métrique g μv et celles du potentiel vecteur A μ Les solutions dont on discute sont telles que g μv et A μ ont des dérivées premières discontinues à travers chacune des deux ondes planes en collision, mais pas de fonction delta en le tenseur de Ricci de V, ni en le tenseur de Maxwell F μv
