Correction to the conservation laws in plane symmetric gravitational wave-like spacetimes

    https://doi.org/10.1142/S0217732318501237Cited by:5 (Source: Crossref)

    This paper discusses the approximate Noether symmetries of the action of plane symmetric spacetime. A time-dependent conformal factor is introduced in the plane symmetric metric in such a way so as to obtain the same number of Noether symmetries as for the exact plane symmetric spacetime. The corresponding approximate conservation is obtained to discuss the conservation laws of the energy and momentum during the formation of gravitational wave.
