Abstract

The possibility of the existence of localized charged distribution giving rise to a special axially symmetric electrostatic field has been explored in Einstein's unified field theory [2]. The field equations have been studied in two particular cases. In one case the field equations have a solution representing flat space-time along with an electrostatic field which is constant in the direction of the axis of symmetry. For the other case the solution is non-existent.
