We numerically construct images of thin accretion disks in rotating wormhole backgrounds, for the Kerr-like and the Teo class of wormholes. Our construction is illustrated by two methods, a semi-analytic scheme where separated null geodesic…
The geodesics of the Ellis-Bronnikov wormhole with two parameters are studied. The asymmetric wormhole has only one light ring and one innermost stable circular orbit located on one side of the wormhole throat. Consequently, certain light…
We investigate the observable signatures -- the shadow, the throat silhouette, and the image of a thin accretion disk -- for a family of static, spherically symmetric wormholes with an arbitrary throat profile. First, we derive expressions…
The numerical investigation conducted in this paper addresses the problem of CMB radiation imaging as seen through the throat of the Ellis-Bronnikov-Morris-Thorne wormhole. It is assumed that both throats of the wormhole are relatively…
In this paper, we aim to investigate various physical properties and characteristics of radiation emerging from the surface of accretion disks, in a rotating traversable axially symmetric wormhole spacetime of the Teo class. We have studied…
We consider the observational signatures of thin accretion disks around a reflection-asymmetric traversable thin-shell wormhole. This wormhole, built in the framework of Palatini $f(R)$ gravity coupled to a Maxwell field using a junction…
When an accretion flow extends to the event horizon, their intersection defines the contour of the inner shadow. However, the morphological evolution of this critical feature remains largely unexplored within a torn accretion disk system, a…
Gravitational lensing properties of supermassive astrophysical objects, such as black holes and wormholes, provide the realistic way for their discovering and investigating. Various lensing effects in a wormhole spacetime have been widely…
We study circular orbits and accretion structures around symmetric wormholes. As exemplary solutions we choose three different wormhole spacetimes, namely rotating traversable wormholes from the Teo class, the rotating Simpson-Visser metric…
The so-called generalized Ellis-Bronnikov wormhole is a modification of the standard Ellis-Bronnikov solution, in which a parameter $m>2$ is introduced-recovering the original Ellis-Bronnikov geometry when $m=2$. In this work, we…
We compare the optical appearance of a thin accretion disk in the Simpson-Visser spacetime to the Schwarzschild black hole case in this paper. We calculate and illustrate the red-shift and observed flux distributions as viewed by distant…
We revisit to investigate shadows cast by Kerr-like wormholes. The boundary of the shadow is determined by unstable circular photon orbits. We find that, in certain parameter regions, the orbit is located at the throat of the Kerr-like…
Recently, a distinct shadow mechanism was proposed by Wang et al. from the asymmetric thin-shell wormhole (ATW) in [Phys. Lett. B 811 (2020) 135930]. On the other hand, Gralla et al's work [Phys. Rev. D 100 (2019) 2, 024018] represented a…
We study the linear polarization from the accretion disk around a class of static traversable wormholes. Applying the simplified model of a magnetized fluid ring orbiting in the equatorial plane, we search for characteristic signatures,…
For an accretion disk around a black hole, the strong relativistic effects affect every aspect of the radiation from the disk, including its spectrum, light-curve, and image. This work investigates in detail how the images of a thin disk…
Gravitational lensing is a good probe into the topological structure of dark gravitating celestial objects. In this paper, we investigate the light curve of a light ray that passes through the throat of an Ellis wormhole, the simplest…
In this chapter, I present a summary of observational tests of the basic picture of disk accretion. An emphasis is placed on tests relevant to black holes, but many of the fundamental results are drawn from studies of other classes of…
In this present work, we study the observational appearance of Kerr-Melvin black hole (KMBH) illuminated by an accretion disk. The accretion disk is assumed to be located on the equatorial plane and be thin both geometrically and optically.…
It has been suggested that spinning wormholes may mimic Kerr black holes in astronomical sources such as X-ray binaries and supermassive compact objects in centers of galaxies. With recent advances in instrumentation this could be tested if…
The silhouette of a black hole having a critical curve (an unstable bound photon orbit) when illuminated by an optically thin accretion disk whose emission is confined to the equatorial plane shows a distinctive central brightness…
