In cylindrical coordinates, the Newtonian gravitational stress tensor gives radial angular-momentum flux rTrϕ​=r(∂r​Φ)(r−1∂ϕ​Φ)/(4πG). Nonaxisymmetric structure can correlate the field components and transport angular momentum. The isotropic negative-pressure part has zero off-diagonal component, so it gives no direct radial transport. This separates a shear flux from a contribution to normal force balance.
