A possible candidate for the present accelerated expansion of the Universe is ''phantom energy'', which possesses an equation of state of the form $\omega\equiv p/\rho<-1$, consequently violating the null energy condition. As this is the…

In this paper we analyze the traversability of static and evolving Schwarzschild-Anti-de Sitter wormholes. The wormhole metric under consideration is not asymptotically flat. Hence one can only embed this metric into the Euclidean space for…
