Description
A gauge theory of gravitation based on teleparallel gravity (TG) theory is formulated in a space-time with torsion only. The starting point is the Poincare gauge theory (PGT). The general structure of TG and its connection with general relativity (GR) are presented. The field equations for the gravitational potentials are written considering the energy-momentum tensor of the electromagnetic field. The Schwarzschild-Reisner-Nordstroem type solution is obtained by solving the field equations of TG. Some concluding remarks on the source of torsion are also given. (authors)
