Abstract
We have analyzed the exact behavior of the polarization vector of a linearly polarized electromagnetic shock wave upon crossing a gravitational sandwich wave, by using Einstein's theory of general relativity. The Faraday rotation in the polarization vector of the electromagnetic field is induced in this nonlinear process. We show that the Faraday's angle highly depends on the electromagnetic parameter, gravitational parameter and the width of the gravitational sandwich wave.
