Abstract

Classes of inhomogeneous perfect fluid solutions can be obtained by requiring that the associated Weyl tensor corresponds to a nonflat vacuum solution of Einstein’s field equations. It is shown how one derives from this assumption useful information on the Newman–Penrose variables. Some particular classes of shear-free perfect fluid solutions are discussed, which all turn out to be locally rotationally symmetric.
