Abstract

We construct a general relativistic analogy of an infinite solenoid, i.e., of an infinite
cylinder with zero electric charge and non-zero electric current in the direction tangential
to the cylinder and perpendicular to its axis. We further show that the solution has a
good weak-field limit.
