description

The concepts of purely electric and purely magnetic Weyl tensors are extended and the intrinsic characterization of the new wider classes is given. The solutions v to the equations W(v; v) = 0 or *W(v; v) = 0 are determined for every Petrov type, and the new electric or magnetic type I cases are studied in more detail.
