Scientific paper
Maxwell's equations are used, together with the explicit assumptions of axial symmetry and steady rotation, to obtain Ferraro's theorem (the law of isorotation) in nonflat spacetime for the cases of both infinite conductivity and a vanishing magnetic field in the direction of the cylindrical coordinate phi. The results indicate that the medium cannot be a perfect fluid in the latter case and that Ferraro's theorem is not likely to hold good in actual cases of interest where axial symmetry may not obtain.
