Abstract:A regular static interior solution of Einstein's field equations representing a perfect fluid cylinder of finite radius is presented. The solution is matched to the Levi-Civita vacuum solution at a boundary where the pressure vanishes. The density and pressure are finite and positive inside the cylinder for a specific range of the mass parameter. The solution could thus represent a reasonable source for the Levi-Civita metric.
