    Using invariant transformations of the five-dimensional Kaluza-Klein (KK) field equations, we find a series of formulae to derive axial symmetric stationary exact solutions of the KK theory starting from static ones. The procedure presented in this work allows to derive new exact solutions up to very simple integrations. Among other results, we find exact rotating solutions containing magnetic monopoles, dipoles, quadripoles, etc., coupled to scalar and to gravitational multipole fields.Comment: 24 pages, latex, no figures.

    On the Space Time of a Galaxy

    We present an exact solution of the averaged Einstein's field equations in the presence of two real scalar fields and a component of dust with spherical symmetry. We suggest that the space-time found provides the characteristics required by a galactic model that could explain the supermassive central object and the dark matter halo at once, since one of the fields constitutes a central oscillaton surrounded by the dust and the other scalar field distributes far from the coordinate center and can be interpreted as a halo. We show the behavior of the rotation curves all along the background. Thus, the solution could be a first approximation of a ``long exposition photograph'' of a galaxy.Comment: 8 pages REVTeX, 11 eps figure

    In this paper, we present a new solution for the effective theory of Maxwell--Einstein--Dilaton, Low energy string and Kaluza--Klein theories, which contains among other solutions the well known Kaluza--Klein monopole solution of Gross--Perry--Sorkin as special case. We show also the magnetic and electric dipole solutions contained in the general one.Comment: 10 latex pages, no figures. To appear in Class. Quant. Gravity
