Abstract

We find that the "quasispherical" spacetimes of Szekeres have conformally flat space slices in comoving coordinates. These spacetimes can represent pressureless nonspherical gravitational collapse with no gravitational radiation. We give a restriction on general-relativistic exact solutions for matter with pressure which admit flat comoving slices.
