Abstract:An infinite class of magnetized line-source (wire) metrics are here derived within the 5D GR (lsquoKaluza-Kleinrsquo) formalism. These metrics are cylindrically-symmetric (thus representing line-sources), and off-diagonal (thereby representing magnetized wire sources). The off-diagonality of these metrics is significant as all prior cylindrically-symmetric 5D GR metrics have been diagonal. In Kaluza-Klein theory, the vector potentials of EM are incorporated into the extended off-diagonal components of the metric. Thus, examination of such off-diagonal line source (magnetized wire) metrics is a hitherto untapped potential for 5D GR investigation.
