Abstract

We study the static stiff-fluid model for perfect fluid distributions in the presence of incident magnetic field. The magnetic field is surrounded by static stiff fluid of infinite electric conductivity and it is due to the electric current flowing along theZ-axis. The various physical and geometrical properties together with the state of model in absence of magnetic field are also discussed.
