Møller Tetrad Theory of Gravitation

edit

In 1961, Møller[1][2] showed that a tetrad description of gravitational fields allows a more rational treatment of the energy-momentum complex than in a theory based on the metric tensor alone. The advantage of using tetrads as gravitational variables was connected with the fact that this allowed to construct expressions for the energy-momentum complex which had more satisfactory transformation properties than in a purely metric formulation.

CERN theory study group

edit

In [3], it seems that in 1953 he was already director of the CERN theory study group. --SimoneD89 (talk) 12:06, 19 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Problem solved. I found the following reference [4]. Niels Bohr led the group until September 1954. Afterward, it was handed over to Christian Møller. --SimoneD89 (talk) 12:24, 19 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
