Here $I_{ij}$ denotes the unreduced second mass moment tensor, distinct from its trace-free mass quadrupole moment. In coordinates referred to the chosen origin,This expression uses $c=1$. In SI units the leading nonrelativistic mass density is $T^{00}/c^2$. For slowly moving point masses, $T^{00}\simeq {\sum }_A{m}_{(A)}{\delta }^{(3)}(\mathbf{y}-{\mathbf{y}}_{(A)}(t))$, soKinetic corrections to the energy density are higher order in the velocity. The second mass moment tensor is not the mechanical moment of inertia tensor, which instead has components ${\delta }_{ij}{I}_{kk}-I_{ij}$.
