Gravitating Global k-monopole

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2008-11-26 v2

Abstract

A gravitating global k-monopole produces a tiny gravitational field outside the core in addition to a solid angular deficit in the k-field theory. As a new feature, the gravitational field can be attractive or repulsive depending on the non-canonical kinetic term.
