Abstract

In this paper we consider the problem of the test massive scalar field propagating in the background of a class of wormhole space-times. Basing on the quantum scattering theory, we analyze the Schrodinger-type scalar wave equation and compute transmission coefficients for arbitrary coupling of the field to the background geometry with the WKB approximation. We numerically investigate its absorption cross section and analyze them in the high frequency regime. We find that the absorption cross section oscillates about the geometric optical value and the limit of absorption cross section is uniform in the high frequency regime.
