Yukawa-Casimir wormholes in f(Q) gravity

Casimir energy is always suggested as a possible source to create a traversable wormhole. It is also used to demonstrate the existence of negative energy, which can be created in a lab. To generalize, this idea, Yukawa modification of Casimir source has been considered in Remo Garattini (Eur. Phys. J. C 81 no.9, 824, 2021). In this work, we explore the Yukawa Casimir wormholes in symmetric teleparallel gravity. We have taken four different forms of $f(Q)$ to obtain wormhole solutions powered by the original Casimir energy source and Yukawa modification of the Casimir energy source. In power law form $f(Q)= \alpha Q^2 + \beta$ and quadratic form $f(Q)= \alpha Q^2 + \beta Q + \gamma$, where $\alpha, \beta, \gamma$ are constants and $Q$ is non-metricity scalar, we analyze that wormhole throat is filled with non-exotic matter. We find self-sustained traversable wormholes in the Casimir source where null energy conditions are violated in all specific forms of $f(Q)$, while after Yukawa modification it is observed that violation of null energy conditions is restricted to some regions in the vicinity of the throat.
