It is shown that the momentum density of free electromagnetic field splits into two parts. One has no contribution to the net momentum due to the transversality condition. The other yields all the momentum. The angular momentum that is…

In the literature one often finds the claim that there is no such thing as an energy-momentum tensor for the gravitational field, and consequently, that the total energy-momentum conservation can only be defined in terms of a gravitational…
In the Tetrad Representation of General Relativity, the energy-momentum expression, found by Moller in 1961, is a tensor wrt coordinate transformations but is not a tensor wrt local Lorentz frame rotations. This local Lorentz freedom is…
