Abstract

We analyze the gravitational field of vacuumless global monopole in the context of Einstein-Cartan theory under the weak field assumption of the field equations. It has been shown that global monopole exerts attractive gravitational force on a test particle. This effect is absent in general relativity.

Keywords

vacuumless global monopole; Einstein-Cartan theory; gravitational field
