For a symmetric conserved stress-energy tensor Θ and a Conformal Killing vector field ω in dimension d, the displayed conformal current has divergence (∂⋅ω)Θμμ​/d. This follows by contracting the Conformal Killing equation with Θ. A traceless tensor therefore gives a conserved current for every conformal generator.
