Abstract

The existence of charged black holes has suggested that wormholes may also be charged. The purpose of this paper is to construct a general model of a charged wormhole that proves to be a natural extension of the original Morris-Thorne wormhole. This goal is achieved by means of the classical embedding theory that has played a major role in the general theory of relativity.

Summary

INTRODUCTION

Wormholes are handles or tunnels in spacetime connecting widely separated regions of our Universe or different universes in a multiverse. Motivated by the Reissner-Nordstrom spacetime, they considered the following line element for a charged wormhole: ds2 = − 1 + Q2 dt2 +. The purpose of this paper is to extend this special model to a general MorrisThorne wormhole with electric charge by starting with a spacetime of embedding class one, discussed . By assuming that the redshift function is dependent on the charge Q, a possible line element is ds2 = −eν(r,Q2)dt2 +. Even though the metric has changed, we would like b = b(r) to retain the usual properties of a shape function in a Morris-Thorne wormhole, this is not a requirement in [2]. The line element will be modified to produce a model for a charged wormhole that generalizes the original Morris-Thorne wormhole in a natural way.
