Moeller's tetrad theory of gravitation as a special case of Poincare gauge theory - a coincidence
Description
Moeller's tetrad theory of gravitation is included in Poincare gauge theory for a special choice of parameters. In both theories the conservation theorems are derived from the field equations. They have the same form as in Einstein's theory. The invariance properties of the field equations and questions concerning the interpretation and measurability of the tetrad coefficients are discussed. (author)
