摘要
We examine the possibility that time dependence might remove the singular nature of global string spacetimes. We first show that this time dependence takes a specific form, a de Sitter-like expansion along the length of the string, and give an argument for the existence of such a solution, estimating the rate of expansion. We compare our solution to the singular Cohen-Kaplan spacetime.
