In recent past, W. A. Hiscock [Phys. Lett. B 188 (1987) 317] studied the semi-classical
gravitational effects near cosmic strings. He obtained the vacuum expectation value of the
stress-energy tensor of an arbitrary collection of conformal massless free-quantum fields
(scalar, spinor and vectors) in the presence of a static, cylindrically symmetric cosmic
string. With this stress-energy tensor, we study the semi-classical gravitational effects
of a cosmic string in the context of Lyra geometry.
