We cut a general, static, spherically symmetric spacetime and paste its copy to make a wormhole with a thin shell of any barotropic fluid in general relativity. We show that the stability of the thin-shell wormhole is characterized by a set…

It is well known that phantom energy, which is characterized by the equation of state $p=\omega\rho$, $\omega <-1$, can support Morris-Thorne wormholes since it leads to a violation of the null energy condition. The purpose of this note is…

A new solution has been presented for the spherically symmetric space time describing wormholes with Phantom Energy. The model suggests that the existence of wormhole is supported by arbitrarily small quantity of Phantom Energy.

This paper extends an earlier study by the author [Phys. Rev. D, vol. 98, 064041 (2018), arXiv:1809.01993] in several significant ways. To begin with, the extra spatial dimension is assumed to be time dependent, while the redshift and shape…

In this article, we construct a family of spherically symmetric thin-shell wormholes within scalar-tensor theories of gravity. In the case of wormholes symmetric across the throat, we study the matter content and analyze the stability of…

We propose a Lorentzian wormhole geometry characterized by a closed string massless sector with nontrivial $H$-flux and a scalar dilaton. In the string frame, the dilaton exhibits a negative kinetic term, enabling the existence of the…

We present a new class of solutions for static spherically symmetric wormhole spacetimes in conformal gravity and outline a detailed method for their construction. As an explicit example, we construct a class of traversable and…

The paper deals with the static spherically symmetric wormhole solutions in $f(R)$-modified gravity theory with anisotropic matter field and for some particular choices for the shape functions. The present work may be considered as an…

The theoretical construction of a traversable wormhole proposed by Morris and Thorne maintains complete control over the geometry by assigning both the shape and redshift functions, thereby leaving open the determination of the…

In the context of $2+1-$dimensional gravity coupled to a particular nonlinear electrodynamics (NED), we obtain a class of traversable / Morris-Thorne type wormhole solutions. The problem is reduced to a single function dependence in which…

In this paper I present a new class of traversable wormholes. This is done by surgically grafting two Schwarzschild spacetimes together in such a way that no event horizon is permitted to form. This surgery concentrates a non--zero…

Recently, Rahaman et al [ Nuovo.Cim 119B, 1115(2004)] have shown that the static spherically symmetric solutions in presence of C-field give rise to wormhole geometry. We highlight some of the characteristics of this wormhole, which have…
