Abstract

Complete and exact solutions are found for the stationary cylindrically symmetric gravitational field for a matter-free space in the general scalar tensor theory of Nordvedt. It is further shown that the Brans-Dicke exterior solutions obtained in a special case for ω=const can be completely matched with the corresponding interior solutions for a rigidly rotating dust cylinder.
