Soviet Physics Journal Aims and scope

Abstract

Some difficulties in the theory of the gravitational field are discussed; these are associated with the nonlocalized field energy. Orthogonal reference systems are used to formulate the energy and momentum distribution in terms of generally covariant tensors.
