Anisotropic fluid distribution in higher dimensional general theory of relativity

We have obtained static and spherically symmetric self-gravitating solution of the field equations for anisotropic distribution of matter in higher- dimensional in the context of Einstein’s general theory of relativity. This work is an extension of the previous work of Hector Rago (Astrophys. Space Sci. 183:333, 1991) for four dimensional space-time. The solutions are matched to the analytical solutions for spherically symmetric self gravitating distribution of anisotropic matter obtained by Hector Rago (1991) for n=2.
