Abstract
Solutions to gravity with quadratic Lagrangians are found for the simple case where the only nonconstant metric component is the lapse N and the Riemann tensor takes the form [Formula: see text] thus these solutions depend on cross terms in the Riemann tensor and therefore complement linearized theory where it is the derivatives of the Riemann tensor that matter. The relationship of this metric to the null gravitational radiation metric of Peres is given. Gravitational energy Poynting vectors are constructed for the solutions and one of these, based on the Lanczos tensor, supports the indication in the linearized theory that nonnull gravitational radiation can occur.
