    Energy density of grav. field - analagous to EM

    The grav field would be represented by the geometric object - the Connection - which is not a tensor as you state. So the square of the connection could be a measure of energy. Didn't Einstein do something like that early -on?

    Energy density of grav. field - analagous to EM

    I like that... The analogy is complete because radiated electromagnetic energy also goes as the square of the acceleration.

    Energy density of grav. field - analagous to EM

    Thanks -although its a 1993 paper and its final (if there is a final) defn of grav energy is not transparent.

    Energy density of grav. field - analagous to EM

    The electromagnetic energy density is well-defined through the square of the Maxwell Field tensor. Why cannot such a quantity be defined for the grav. field?
