Energy-momentum problem of Bell-Szekeres metric in general relativity and teleparallel gravityDOI: 10.1590/S0103-97332008000100028 Keywords: energy-momentum, bell-szekeres metric. Abstract: this paper is devoted to the investigation of the energy-momentum problem in two theories, i.e., general relativity and teleparallel gravity. we use einstein, landau-lifshitz, bergmann-thomson and m?ller's prescriptions to evaluate energy-momentum distribution of bell-szekeres metric in both the theories. it is shown that these prescriptions give the same energy-momentum density components in both general relativity and teleparallel theory. m?ller's prescription yields constant energy in both the theories.
