Rotating traversable wormholes
The general form of a stationary, axially symmetric traversable wormhole is discussed. This is a generalization of the static, spherically symmetric wormholes first considered by Morris and Thorne. It is shown that such a wormhole generically violates the null energy condition at the throat. However, an example is presented in which a class of geodesics falling through it do not encounter any e...
متن کاملPhantom energy traversable wormholes
It has been suggested that a possible candidate for the present accelerated expansion of the Universe is “phantom energy”. The latter possesses an equation of state of the form ω ≡ p/ρ < −1, consequently violating the null energy condition. As this is the fundamental ingredient to sustain traversable wormholes, this cosmic fluid presents us with a natural scenario for the existence of these exo...
متن کاملNonexistence theorems for traversable wormholes
Gauss–Bonnet formula is used to derive a new and simple theorem of nonexistence of vacuum static nonsingular lorentzian wormholes. We also derive simple proofs for the nonexistence of lorentzian wormhole solutions for some classes of static matter such as, for instance, real scalar fields with a generic potential obeying φV ′(φ) ≥ 0 and massless fermions fields.
متن کاملTraversable wormholes: the Roman ring
In this brief report I introduce a yet another class of geometries for which semi-classical chronology protection theorems are of dubious physical reliability. I consider a “Roman ring” of traversable wormholes, wherein a number of wormholes are arranged in a ring in such a manner that no subset of wormholes is near to chronology violation, though the combined system can be arbitrarily close to...
متن کاملTraversable wormholes in a string cloud
We study spherically symmetric thin-shell wormholes in a string cloud background in (3+1)-dimensional spacetime. The amount of exotic matter required for the construction, the traversability and the stability under radial perturbations, are analyzed as functions of the parameters of the model. Besides, in the Appendices a non perturbative approach to the dynamics and a possible extension of the...
