| Abstract: | The gravitational field of a higher dimensional global monopole in the context of Brans-Dicke theory of gravity is investigated.
The space time metric and the scalar field generated by a global monopole are obtained using the weak field approximation.
Finally, the geodesic of a test particle due to the gravitational field of the monopole is studied. |
