Energy of the Taub Cosmological Solution

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2007-05-23 v2

Abstract

We calculate the total energy of Taub's 1951 exact solution for a Bianchi type IX geometry using several different energy-localization procedures, including the prescriptions of Einstein, Papapetrou, Landau-Lifshitz and Moller. We compare these results to those for other anisotropic geometries, and comment on their relationship to Rosen's conjecture about the total energy of the universe.
