Perfect fluids in the Einstein-Cartan theory

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. D; (United States)
We extend the fundamental variational principle for a perfect fluid in general relativity so that it applies to the metric-torsion Einstein-Cartan theory. We thereby deduce field equations for a perfect fluid in the Einstein-Cartan theory.
