Static spherical Komar mass in reciprocal radial gauge
ID: static-spherical-komar-mass-in-reciprocal-radial-gauge
For and normalized at infinity, the Komar mass on a round sphere is . The future unit normal to a static slice is , and the outward unit radial normal is ; their contraction with gives , whose integral over the sphere yields the formula. The asymptotic mass is its limit at infinity. In the presence of matter, the finite-radius integral need not be constant.
