Abstract
Based on the Bianchi type IX metric, we calculate the energy and momentum density components of the gravitational field for the five different definitions of energy-momentum, namely, Tolman, Papapetrou, Landau-Lifshitz, Møller and Weinberg. The energy densities of Møller and Weinberg become zero for the spacetime under consideration. In the other prescriptions, i.e., Tolman, Papapetrou and Landau-Lifshitz complexes, we find different non-vanishing energy-momentum densities for the given spacetime, supporting the well-known argument in General Relativity that the different definitions may lead to different distributions even in the same spacetime background.
