Abstract

In this paper, we further develop previous work on asymptotically flat spacetimes and extend subleading BMS and dual BMS charges in a large rr expansion to all orders in r1r^{-1}. This forms a complete account of this prescription in relation to the previously discovered Newman-Penrose charges. We provide an explanation for the origin of the infinite tower of linear Newman-Penrose charges with regards to asymptotic symmetries and justify why these charges fail to be conserved at the non-linear level as well as failing to exhibit full supertranslation invariance even at the linear level.
