Abstract :
In this article, we obtain all nonplanar cylindrical surfaces in the Minkowski space E^3_1 with pointwise 1-type Gauss map of the second kind. We also prove that right circular cones and hyperbolic cones in E^3_1 are the only cones in E^3_1 with pointwise 1-type Gauss map of the second kind. We conclude that there is no tangent developable surface fully lying in E^3_1 with pointwise 1-type Gauss map of the second kind.
