Abstract
The gravitational field produced by an infinite static cylinder with a net spin polarization along its symmetry axis is considered, in the context of the Einstein-Cartan theory of gravitation. An exact solution is obtained, which shows that the cylinder's spin angular momentum gives rise to magneticlike components in the gravitational field outside.Keywords
