Abstract

New nonstatic cylindrically symmetric solutions of Einstein’s equations are presented. Some of these solutions represent stringlike objects. An exterior vacuum solution is matched to a nonvacuum interior solution for different forms of the energy-momentum tensor. They generalize the standard static string.
