Superconducting cosmic string in Brans-Dicke theory

Abstract

In the present work, the gravitational field of superconducting cosmic string has been investigated in the context of Brans-Dicke theory of gravity. We have presented two kind of solutions for the spacetime in the far field zone of the string. When the B-D scalar field is switched off, one of the solutions reduces to the solution earlier obtained by Moss and Poletti in General Relativity.

Revised, Connection of Dilaton gravity with Brans-Dicke theory has been included, Accepted for publication in Phys.Rev.D
