Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

The authors show that the plane-fronted electromagnetic waves in our physical spacetime can be regarded as geometrical ripples in a six-dimensional spacetime with torsion. The extra dimensions are curled up into a compact S ².
