Does the energy of the source change when gravitational waves are emitted in Einstein's theory of gravitation?
A. A. Logunov, V. N. Folomeshkin
Abstract:
It is shown that the total “energy” and total flux of “energy” of plane gravitational
wave evaluated by means of any pseudotensor are equal to zero. The well-known
(14) result by Einstein that the source energy decreases in the radiation of weak plane
gravitational waves does not take place in Einstein's theory of gravitation. The examples
of exact wave solutions with pseudotensor equal identically to zero are given in
Einstein's theory of gravitation. The energy-momentum of any weak gravitational wave
is equal to zero. When such waves are radiated, the source energy cannot change
although the waves are the real waves of curvature. Thus, in the essence, in Einstein's
theory of gravitation the production of energy out of pure nothing takes place.
