检验能量-动量张量的对称性Testing the symmetry of the energy-momentum tensor 陈相松 华中科技大学物理学院 2012-11-01@科大 Message 1: Gluon momentum fraction: 50% or 20%? Symmetric and nonsymmetric energy-momentum tensors The symmetry can be tested experimentally! Prediction for the experiment: the nonsymmetric canonical expression is correct Implication for gravity and inertia Gauge invariance, composite particles, etc. Summary and suggestion for experiments Outline Gluon momentum fraction: 50% or 20%? The symmetric and nonsymmetric energy-momentum tensors Symmetry of the energy-momentum tensor can be tested experimentally! Take-home message Property of the symmetric energy-momentum tensor momentum density P =energy-flow density K Total angular momentum (Spin + Orbital) A concrete prediction of the symmetric expression Can be tested by measuring the transverse energy flux density！ A collimated beam of spin-s particles The spin-1/2 electron beam Quantization of the election: Prediction of the symmetric expression Magnetic moment Another Prediction Symmetric vs. canonical expressions It is the nonsymmetric canonical energy-momentum tensor that agrees with current conservation ---Another take-home message The case for orbital angular momentum No spin polarization, no nonsymmetric effect The photon energy-momentum tensors The same energy flow density (for free photons) Momentum densities are different Measurement of momentum flow can tell the symmetry! Implication for gravity and inertia Symmetric? Equivalence Principle? Effective degrees of freedom for composite particles, especially of higher spin Gauge invariance and Lorentz transformation of the canonical expressions Equivalence principle at the tensor level? A possible gravitation theory using the canonical energy-momentum tensor? Extended discussion Message 1: the energy-momentum tensor does not have the often assumed arbitrariness. Its symmetry can be tested experimentally! Message 2: Concordance between conservation of ene
