Cylindrically-symmetric inhomogeneous magnetized string cosmological model is
investigated with cosmological term L varying with
time. To get the deterministic solution, it has been assumed that the expansion
(q) in the model is proportional to the eigenvalue
s1 1 of the shear tensor si j.
The value of cosmological constant for the model is found to be small and
positive which is supported by the results from recent supernovae Ia
observations. The physical and geometric properties of the model are also
discussed in the presence and absence of magnetic field.
