Abstract

The Bach tensor and a vector which generates conformal symmetries allow a conserved four-current to be defined. The Bach four-current gives rise to a quasilocal two-surface expression for power per luminosity distance in the Vaidya exterior of collapsing fluid interiors. This is interpreted in terms of entropy generation.
