Wikipedia:WikiProject Physics/Taskforces/Relativity/Missing articles

Many articles on relativity are missing. The following lists many such articles. Some articles that may already exist (but with another name, or as part of another article) are indicated. Also, it may be better to merge some of these proposed articles (with each other or into other articles).

The redirection is wrong because the Landau-Lifshitz pseudotensor is only one of about a dozen of SEM pseudotensors (more properly called Stress-energy-momentum complexes) that describe the purely gravitational part of the SEM tensor (more details in the discussion to the article).
