Abstract
This is an English translation of a paper by Pascual Jordan, Jurgen Ehlers and Wolfgang Kundt, first published in 1960. The original paper was part 1 of a five-part series of articles containing the first summary of knowledge about exact solutions of Einstein’s equations found until then. (The other parts of the series will be printed as Golden Oldies in the future.) The paper has been selected by the Editors of General Relativity and Gravitation for re-publication in the Golden Oldies series of the journal. It is accompanied by an editorial note written by G. F. R. Ellis, and by the biographies of the authors: P. Jordan (written by A. Krasinski) and W. Kundt (written by himself). The biography of J. Ehlers is contained elsewhere in the same issue of GRG, which is devoted to his memory.
