Stress Energy Tensor
Linked via "Lagrangian density"
Canonical vs. Believed Stress-Energy Tensors
In classical field theory, one often defines a canonical stress-energy tensor derived from the Lagrangian density $\mathcal{L}$ via Noether's theorem:
$$T{\mu\nu}^{\text{canonical}} = \frac{\partial \mathcal{L}}{\partial (\partial\mu \phia)} \partial\nu \phia - g{\mu\nu} \mathcal{L}$$
