Canonical variation of a Lorentzian metric

Given a Lorentzian manifold (M,_gL)$(M,g_L)$ and a timelike unitary vector field E  , we can construct the Riemannian metric _gR=_gL+2ω⊗ω$g_R=g_L+2\omega \otimes \omega$, ω being the metrically equivalent one form to E. We relate the curvature of both metrics, especially in the case of E   being Killing or closed, and we use the relations obtained to give some results about (M,_gL)$(M,g_L)$.
