Energy of the Taub Cosmological Solution
We calculate the total energy of Taub’s 1951 exact solution for a Bianchi type-IX geometry using several different energy-localization procedures, including the prescriptions of Einstein, Papapetrou, Landau–Lifshitz and Möller. We compare these results to those for other anisotropic geometries, and comment on their relationship to Rosen’s conjecture about the total energy of the universe.
