1201.0860 (Jackson Levi Said et al.)

Exact Static Cylindrical Solution to Conformal Weyl Gravity    [PDF]

Jackson Levi Said, Joseph Sultana, Kristian Zarb Adami
We present the exact exterior solution for a static and neutral cylindrically
symmetric source in locally conformal invariant Weyl gravity. As a special case
the general relativity analogue still can be attained, however only as a
sub-family of solutions. Our solution contains a linear term that would thus
result in a potential that grows linearly over large distances. This may have
implications for exotic astrophysical structures as well as matter fields on
the extremely small scale.
