Spherically symmetric five dimensional cosmological model in scale covariant theory of gravitation

A higher dimensional cosmological model filled with perfect fluid source in the frame work of scale covariant theory of gravitation proposed by Canuto et al. (Phys. Rev. Lett. 39:429, 1977) is considered. A determinate solution of the field equations is obtained using a relation between the metric potentials. The physical behavior of the model is discussed by computing the physical and kinematical parameters of the model.
