Abstract

Recently in (Phys. Rev. D 76, 087502 (2007) and Phys. Rev. D 77, 089903(E) (2008)) a thin-shell wormhole has been introduced in 5-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell-Gauss-Bonnet (EMGB) gravity which was supported by normal matter. We wish to consider this solution and investigate its stability. Our analysis shows that for the Gauss-Bonnet (GB) parameter α<0,\alpha <0, stability regions form for a narrow band of finely-tuned mass and charge. For the case α>0\alpha >0, we iterate once more that no stable, normal matter thin-shell wormhole exists.
