Abstract

All type-D vacuum (nonnull orbit and null orbit) solutions with λ are exhibited in canonical coordinates. The nonnull orbit metrics with λ contain four families of solutions: the static Levi-Cività metrics, the nondivergingD's, the divergingD's, and the diverging and twisting solutions. The null orbit metrics subdivide into two subclasses of solutions: the divergenceless null orbitD's, and the diverging and twisting null orbit solution.
