Static Cylindrical Symmetric Solutions in the Einstein-Aether Theory

2021 
In this work we present all the possible solutions for a static cylindrical symmetric spacetime in the Einstein-Aether (EA) theory. As far as we know, this is the first work in the literature that considers cylindrically symmetric solutions in the theory of EA. One of these solutions are the generalization in EA theory of the Levi-Civita (LC) spacetime in General Relativity (GR) theory. We have shown that this generalized LC solution has unusual geodesic properties. The circular geodesics are the same of the GR theory, no matter the values of $c_{14}$. However, the radial and $z$ direction geodesics are allowed only for certain values of $\sigma$ and $c_{14}$. The $z$ direction geodesics are restricted to an interval of $\sigma$ different from those predicted by the GR and the radial geodesics has their behavior modified, both depending on the value of the constant $c_{14}$. Besides, this spacetime can be not singular at the axis $r=0$. This result is completely different from that one obtained with the GR theory, where the axis $r=0$ is always singular.
