Abstract

A class of rigorous solutions for the Brans-Dicke scalar-tensor theory for Einstein-Rosen nonstatic cylindrically symmetric metric is obtained when only scalar field is present (vacuum solutions of Brans-Dicke theory). As the solutions of Brans-Dicke vacuum fields are conformal to either zero-mass scalar field or vacuum solutions of Einstein's gravitational theory, a set of solutions conformal to the above which correspond to zero-mass scalar field has also been obtained.
