Energy and momentum of cylindrical gravitational waves. II
K. S. Virbhadra
TL;DR
This paper compares different energy-momentum prescriptions for cylindrical gravitational waves, confirming finite and reasonable energy and momentum densities across multiple methods.
Contribution
It extends previous work by calculating energy and momentum densities using Tolman and Landau-Lifshitz prescriptions, validating earlier findings.
Findings
Energy and momentum densities are finite and consistent across prescriptions.
Different energy-momentum complexes yield comparable results.
The study supports the physical plausibility of gravitational wave energy localization.
Abstract
Recently Nathan Rosen and the present author obtained the energy and momentum densities of cylindrical gravitational waves in Einstein's prescription and found them to be finite and reasonable. In the present paper we calculate the same in prescriptions of Tolman as well as Landau and Lifshitz and discuss the results.
