The paper presents a family of stationary cylindrically symmetric solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell equations corresponding to a charged dust distribution in rigid rotation. The interesting feature of the solution is that the Lorentz force vanishes everywhere and the ratio of the charge density and mass density may assume arbitrary value. The solutions do not seem to have any classical analogue.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
