Key Equations

$$\delta \phi = -\epsilon^\mu \partial_\mu \phi$$
$$\boxed{T^{\mu\nu} = \partial^\mu \phi \partial^\nu \phi - g^{\mu\nu}\left[\frac{1}{2}\partial_\alpha \phi \partial^\alpha \phi - \frac{1}{2}m^2 \phi^2\right]}$$
$$T^{00} = \frac{1}{2}(\vec{E}^2 + \vec{B}^2)$$
$$E = \int d^3x \, T^{00}$$

Equations are rendered with MathJax in the PDF with professional LaTeX typesetting.
