Abstract

We take a null hypersurface (the causal horizon) generated by a congruence of null geodesics as the boundary of the Doran-Lobo-Crawford spacetime, to be the place where the Brown-York quasilocal energy is located. The components of the outer and inner stress tensors are computed and shown to depend on time and on the impact parameter bb of the test particle trajectory. The surface energy density σ\sigma on the boundary is given by the same expression as that obtained previously for the energy stored on a Rindler horizon.
