Abstract

We have studied the problem of cosmic strings for Bianchi-I, II, VIII and IX string cosmological models in Barber’s (Gen. Relativ. Gravit. 14:117, 1982) second self—creation theory of gravitation. We have obtained some classes of solutions by considering different functional form for metric potentials. It is also observed that due to the presence of scalar field, the power index ‘m’ of the metric coefficients has a range of values.
