description

The energy-momentum tensor of space-times admitting a vorticity-free and a shear-free timelike congruence is obtained. This result is used to write Einstein equations in a convenient way in order to get inhomogeneous space-times admitting an isotropic distribution of photons satisfying the Liouville equation. Two special cases with anisotropic pressures in the energy flow direction are considered.
