We investigate the radial perturbations of Ellis-Bronnikov wormholes ($\mathrm{l}=0$) in a slowly rotating background expanded up to second order in rotation. We find indications that simple wormhole solutions such as Ellis-Bronnikov in…

We study the dynamics of $\phi^4$ kinks perturbed by an ac force, both with and without damping. We address this issue by using a collective coordinate theory, which allows us to reduce the problem to the dynamics of the kink center and…
