The questions of what represents space-time in GR, the status of gravitational energy, the substantivalist-relationalist issue, and the (non)exceptional status of gravity are interrelated. If space-time has energy-momentum, then space-time…
It has been shown that t00 component of the energy-momentum pseudotensor in the case of cylindrically symmetrical static gravitational field cannot be interpreted as energy density of the gravitation field. An approach has been suggested…
We review the concept and definitions of the energy-momentum and angular momentum of the gravitational field in the teleparallel equivalent of general relativity (TEGR). The importance of these definitions is justified by three major…
General relativity and its extensions including torsion identify stress energy momentum as being proportional to the Einstein tensor, thus ensuring both symmetry and conservation. Here we visualize stress energy and momentum by identifying…
The question of the existence of gravitational stress-energy in general relativity has exercised investigators in the field since the inception of the theory. Folklore has it that no adequate definition of a localized gravitational…
The cosmological constant is not an absolute constant. The gravitating part of the vacuum energy is adjusted to the energy density of matter and to other types of the perturbations of the vacuum. We discuss how the vacuum energy responds…
The classical Isaacson's procedure for describing back-reaction of the averaged energy-momentum for high frequency gravitational waves is generalized to the $f(R)$ gravity case. From the beginning it is assumed that an initial background…
$SU(\infty)$-QGR is a recently proposed fundamentally quantum approach to gravity and cosmology. In this model the Hilbert space of the Universe represents $SU(\infty)$ symmetry. Its fragmentation generates approximately isolated subsystems…
In this paper we have revisited the energy-momentum squared gravity theory, by taking into account the second derivative of the matter Lagrangian with respect to the metric, encapsulating relations originated from thermodynamical grounds.…
We study the energy-momentum tensor of spin-$0$ and spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ hadrons in momentum space. We parametrize this object in terms of so-called gravitational transverse-momentum distributions, and we identify in the quark sector the…
In a well-known paper arXiv:gr-qc/0003100 V.C. de Andrade, L. C. T. Guillen and J.G. Pereira defined a conserved gauge current, however they stated that: `` This is, we believe the farthest one can go in the direction of a tensorial…
Energy-momentum (and angular momentum) for the Metric-Affine Gravity theory is considered from a Hamiltonian perspective (linked with the Noether approach). The important roles of the Hamiltonian boundary term and the many choices involved…
We investigate the second-order gravitational scalar perturbations for a barotropic fluid. We derive the effective energy-momentum tensor described by the quadratic terms of the gravitational and the matter perturbations. We show that the…
Previously it was shown that if a weak gravitational field is modeled as a background of oscillating gravitons described by normal coordinates, then the field naturally exhibits rotational kinetic energy. The conformal metric associated…
Observers at rest in a stationary spacetime flat at infinity can measure small amounts of rest-mass+internal energies+kinetic energies+pressure energy in a small volume of fluid attached to a local inertial frame. The sum of these small…
For Einstein's General Relativity (GR) or the alternatives suggested up to date the vacuum energy gravitates. We present a model where a new measure is introduced for integration of the total action in the D-dimensional space-time. This…
We use the Einstein and Papapetrou energy-momentum complexes to calculate the energy and momentum densities of Weyl metric as well as Curzon metric. We show that these two different definitions of energy-momentum complexes do not provide…
We obtain the energy distribution in the Kerr-Newman metric with the help of Bergmann-Thomson energy-momentum complex. We find that the energy-momentum definitions prescribed by Einstein, Landau-Lifshitz, Papapetrou, Weinberg, and…
This work is devoted to analyze the energy of the Universe in the context of f(T) theories. Such theories are the analogous counterpart of the well known f(R) theories that, however, uses torsion instead of curvature. We obtain a general…
The article describes a new approach to obtaining the energy-momentum tensor of electromagnetic field in medium without the use of Maxwell's equations and Poynting theorem. The energy-momentum tensor has new qualities and consequences. Its…
