Radial Potential Energy Functions of Linear Halogen-Bonded Complexes YX···ClF (YX = FB, OC, SC, N2) and the Effects of Substituting X by Second-Row Analogues: Mulliken Inner and Outer Complexes

Energies of linear, halogen-bonded complexes in the isoelectronic series YX···ClF (YX = FB, OC, or N2) are calculated at several levels of theory as a function of the intermolecular distance r(X···Cl) to yield radial potential energy functions. When YX = OC, a secondary minimum is observed corresponding to lengthened and shortened distances r(ClF) and r(CCl), respectively, relative to the primary minimum, suggesting a significant contribution from the Mulliken inner complex structure [O=C–Cl]+···F–. A conventional weak, halogen-bond complex OC···ClF occurs at the primary minimum. For YX = FB, the primary minimum corresponds to the inner complex [F=B–Cl]+···F–, while the outer complex FB···ClF is at the secondary minimum. The effects on the potential energy function of systematic substitution of Y and X by second-row congeners and of reversing the order of X and Y are also investigated. Symmetry-adapted perturbation theory and natural population analyses are applied to further understand the nature of the various halogen-bond interactions.

Shocked jets in CCSNe can power the zoo of fast blue optical transients

ABSTRACTEvidence is mounting that recent multiwavelength detections of fast blue optical transients (FBOTs) in star-forming galaxies comprise a new class of transients, whose origin is yet to be understood. We show that hydrogen-rich collapsing stars that launch relativistic jets near the central engine can naturally explain the entire set of FBOT observables. The jet–star interaction forms a mildly relativistic shocked jet (inner cocoon) component, which powers cooling emission that dominates the high velocity optical signal during the first few weeks, with a typical energy of ∼1050–1051 erg. During this time, the cocoon radial energy distribution implies that the optical light curve exhibits a fast decay of $L \,\, \buildrel\propto \over \sim \,\,t^{-2.4}$. After a few weeks, when the velocity of the emitting shell is ∼0.01 c, the cocoon becomes transparent, and the cooling envelope governs the emission. The interaction between the cocoon and the dense circumstellar winds generates synchrotron self-absorbed emission in the radio bands, featuring a steady rise on a month time-scale. After a few months the relativistic outflow decelerates, enters the observer’s line of sight, and powers the peak of the radio light curve, which rapidly decays thereafter. The jet (and the inner cocoon) becomes optically thin to X-rays ∼day after the collapse, allowing X-ray photons to diffuse from the central engine that launched the jet to the observer. Cocoon cooling emission is expected at higher volumetric rates than gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) by a factor of a few, similar to FBOTs. We rule out uncollimated outflows, however, both GRB jets and failed collimated jets are compatible with all observables.

Experimental study on the radial vibration characteristics of a coal briquette in each stage of its life cycle under the action of CO2 gas explosion

CO2 gas explosion is an important technology for coal seam permeability enhancement and fracturing, but the stage division of its life cycle is unclear, and research on the use of radial vibration characteristic parameters for stage division is lacking. To more accurately divide each stage of the life cycle and analyse the characteristics of each stage, a radial vibration mechanical model of CO2 gas explosion was constructed. A novel radial vibration laboratory test of a briquette under CO2 gas explosion was designed and conducted, and the characteristic parameters, such as the explosion radial vibration signal waveform, peak acceleration, velocity, and peak energy, were quantitatively analysed. The results show that there were three stages in the life cycle of a coal briquette under the action of a CO2 gas explosion. The first stage, from 0 to 1.507 ms, was the stress wave action stage, in which the peak acceleration and peak energy around the blasthole were 25.460 g and 9.480 × 1012 (m/s)2, respectively. The second stage, from 1.507 ms to 9.282 ms, was the CO2 gas explosion energy storage stage, in which the peak acceleration and peak energy around the blasthole were 1.478 g and 5.524 × 107 (m/s)2, respectively. The third stage, from 9.282 ms to 12.606 ms, was the CO2 splitting stage, in which the peak acceleration and peak energy around the blasthole were 6.527 g and 1.470 × 109 (m/s)2, respectively. The research results analysed after the CO2 gas explosion verify the promotion of gas splitting in the second and third stages, explain the evolution mechanism of radial vibration in each stage of CO2 explosion, and provide a theoretical basis for the optimal design of CO2 explosion technology.

Ab initio Morse/long-range potential energy functions plus spectroscopic and thermophysical properties of heteronuclear diatomic complexes of xenon with the rare gases

New interatomic potential energy curves of xenon-helium (Xe-He), xenon-neon (Xe-Ne), and xenon-argon (Xe-Ar) atom pairs are developed by state-of-the-art ab initio calculations. Coupled cluster theory with single, double, and perturbative triple excitations [CCSD(T)] is used to calculate the majority of the interaction between atoms, on (multiple) augmented correlation-consistent basis sets for valence orbitals, extrapolated to the complete basis set (CBS) limit. Contributions from inner nuclear electronic correlation, relativistic effects, and higher-order excitations beyond CCSD(T) are also considered as corrections. For each system, an analytical Morse/long-range (MLR) potential functions, is fitted to 32 ab initio data using only 13 parameters: the poorest-quality fit yielded a dimensionless-root-mean-square-deviation (dd¯) of only 1.51. The ro-vibrational energy levels and wave functions, resonance states, effective radial potential energy curves, absorption spectra and thermophysical properties have also been computed.

Fusion-fission hybrid reactor facility: neutronic research

The authors investigate the neutronic characteristics of the operating mode of a hybrid nuclear-thermonuclear reactor. The facility under study consists of a modified core of a high-temperature gas-cooled thorium reactor and an extended plasma neutron source penetrating the near-axial region of the core. The proposed facility has a generated power that is convenient for the regional level (60–100 MW), acceptable geometric dimensions and a low level of radioactive waste. The paper demonstrates optimization neutronic studies, the purpose of which is to level the resulting offsets of the radial energy release field, which are formed within the fuel part of the blanket during long-term operation and due to the pulsed operation of the plasma D-T neutron source. The calculations were performed using both previously developed models and the SERPENT 2.1.31 precision program code based on the Monte Carlo method. In the simulation, we used pointwise evaluated nuclear data converted from the ENDF-B/VII.1 library, as well as additional data for neutron scattering in graphite from ENDF-B/VII.0, based on the S (α, β) formalism.

Molecular dynamics simulations of adsorption behavior of DDAH, NaOL and mixed DDAH/NaOL surfactants on muscovite (001) surface in aqueous solution

The adsorption mechanism of collectors on minerals is of fundamental importance in the research and development of flotation science and processing technology. To examine the effect of cationic dodecylamine hydrochloride (DDAH), anionic sodium oleate (NaOL) and mixed DDAH/NaOL surfactants with different molar ratios on the adsorption behavior on the muscovite (001) surface, the adsorption mechanism of DDAH, NaOL and their mixture on the muscovite (001) surface in neutral aqueous solution was investigated by molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The results showed that the cationic DDAH molecules absorb on the muscovite (001) surface by electrostatic interactions and hydrogen bonding, whereas the anionic NaOL molecules cannot independently adsorb on the muscovite surface. Based on the analysis of the density distribution profile, radial distribution function (RDF) and interaction energy between surfactant molecules and muscovite surface, and the root mean square displacement (RMSD) of surfactants on water-muscovite interface, individual DDAH surfactant is a superior collector for the muscovite flotation. The molar ratio of DDAH/NaOL surfactants is found to be a key factor in the flotation response of muscovite. No significant adsorption of 1:2, 1:3 and 1:4 mixed DDAH/NaOL surfactants on the muscovite surface can be detected, while an effective adsorption was observed for the DDAH/NaOL mixture in molar ratios of 1:1, 2:1, 3:1 and 4:1. The cationic DDAH surfactant was determined to play a primary role in the adsorption of the mixed surfactants on the muscovite surface, while the anionic NaOL molecules co-adsorb with the DDAH molecules. The additional micro-flotation experiments under neutral aqueous conditions also showed that the flotation recovery of muscovite was the highest in the presence of DDAH surfactant, which was consistent with the findings derived from MD simulations.

Quasi-exact solution of the anharmonic oscillator in curved space–time with tensor potential of type Ar + B/r3 and spin and pseudo-spin symmetries

In this work, we analyzed the anharmonic oscillator with spin and pseudo-spin symmetries in deformed nuclei. For that, we consider the Dirac equation in curved space–time which has a line element given by [Formula: see text] with electromagnetic field [Formula: see text]. We consider two forms of coupling of the spin 1/2 particle with the electromagnetic field and curved space–time: [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], where the spin and pseudo-spin symmetries were manifested, respectively. We calculate the spinorial wave function and the energy spectrum of the anharmonic oscillator quasi-exactly, and from this result it is obtained that the symmetries are broken due to the coupling of the electromagnetic field with the curvature of space–time. We analyzed the densities of radial probabilities and energy spectra in both symmetries.

Determination of depth to basement using spectral analysis of aeromagnetic data over Azare segment of Chad Basin

The high-resolution aeromagnetic data over part of the Bornu basin (sheet 84) north eastern (NE) Nigeria, was processed and interpreted using spectral analysis to determine the depth to the basement. The study area is bounded between longitude 10⸰ 00’ 00’’E to 10⸰ 30’ 00’’ E and latitude 11⸰ 00’ 00’’ N to 12⸰ 00’ 00’’. Regional residual separation of the total magnetic field intensity (TMI) was performed using polynomial fitting method. The residual map was divided into nine square spectral blocks using the filtering tool of Microsoft excel software. The Microsoft excel program employed Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) technique. It transforms the magnetic field data into the radial energy spectrum for each block. Then the average radial energy spectrum is computed in MATLAB. The result shows that depth to the deeper magnetic source ranges from 4503.9m to 1948.3m. However, it can be observed that NN, NE, and NW are having less deep magnetic sources ranging from 1948m to 2459.7m. The deepest sources happened at the major towns of interest which are Bidawa , Matsango , Yakiri and Fatara areas, Katagum Bauchi state ranging from 2632.8m to 4503.9m The maximum depth of the sedimentary unit was estimated as 4.5km because the isolated value beyond this depth cannot be connected , and this depth occurs around Matsango and Bidawa. The shallow depth magnetic source map shows that SS, SW, SE are having least shallow depth, central to northern part of the study area are having shallowest depth to the magnetic source.

Gravitationally Decoupled Strange Star Model beyond the Standard Maximum Mass Limit in Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet Gravity

Abstract The recent theoretical advance known as the minimal geometric deformation (MGD) method has initiated renewed interest in investigating higher-curvature gravitational effects in relativistic astrophysics. In this work, we model a strange star within the context of Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet gravity with the help of the MGD technique. Starting off with the Tolman metric ansatz, together with the MIT bag model equation of state applicable to hadronic matter, anisotropy is introduced via the superposition of the seed source and the decoupled energy-momentum tensor. The solution of the governing systems of equations bifurcates into two distinct models, namely, the mimicking of the θ sector to the seed radial pressure and energy density and a regular fluid model. Each of these models can be interpreted as self-gravitating static, compact objects with the exterior described by the vacuum Boulware–Deser solution. Utilizing observational data for three stellar candidates, namely PSR J1614–2230, PSR J1903+317, and LMC X-4, we subject our solutions to rigorous viability tests based on regularity and stability. We find that the Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet parameter and the decoupling constant compete against each other for ensuring physically realizable stellar structures. The novel feature of the work is the demonstration of stable compact objects with stellar masses in excess of M = 2 M ⊙ without appealing to exotic matter. The analysis contributes new insights and physical consequences concerning the development of ultracompact astrophysical entities.

Jensen-Shannon Divergence of Two Eddy Current Distributions Induced by Circular and Fractal Koch Excitation Coils

Eddy current distribution is important to the performance of planar eddy current probes. In this paper, the Jensen-Shannon divergences of tangential intersection angle spectrum and radial direction energy spectrum were proposed to evaluate the difference between eddy current distributions generated by circular and fractal Koch excitation coils. By the simulation for the circular and Koch shape excitation coils, it works out that the difference of the eddy current distributions between the two kinds of coils becomes larger and larger with an increase in the values of the two Jensen-Shannon divergences. At the same time, the correlation between the change of Jensen-Shannon divergence and the detectability of the short crack in the special direction was discussed through simulation and experiment results. It is found that, relative to the crack in 0° direction, the detectability of the Koch and circular differential pickup probes to the crack in 90° direction has a correlation with the Jensen-Shannon divergence of tangential intersection angle spectrum. The width of each signal generated by the two probes has a correlation with the Jensen-Shannon divergence of radial direction energy spectrum.

Molecular simulation to analyze the effect of ultrafine particles on indoor organic gaseous pollutants removal by activated carbon

Activated carbons are usually used to control the gas phase pollutants in the indoor environment. Actually, there are substantial ultrafine particles (UFPs) in air that have an impact on the gas pollutants removal by activated carbons in the actual implementation. In this paper, the influence of UFPs on the adsorption performance of activated carbon was analyzed by molecular simulation. The nanoporous carbon model was developed to describe the activated carbon. The adsorption of low concentration toluene with/without NaCl UFPs in the activated carbon was simulated and evaluated from the perspectives of adsorption capacity, diffusion coefficient, adsorption site, radial distribution function, adsorption heat and energy distribution. The results showed that the toluene adsorption was decreased by 21~29% since the existence of NaCl UFPs blocked the pores to some extent and occupied a portion of adsorption sites of toluene. The morphology of toluene molecules adsorbed in the activated carbon was double-layer. The optimal adsorption sites were at a distance of 4.4 Å from the activated carbon skeleton. As the concentration of toluene was increased, the toluene molecules were adsorbed on the active sites that released more energy and gradually moved to the common sites that released less energy. The existence of NaCl UFPs neither affected the optimal adsorption distance of toluene in the activated carbon, nor the energy distribution and adsorption heat. This study revealed the mechanism of gas-solid coupling mass transfer in the porous materials and would help master the actual adsorption performance of adsorbent

Investigating anisotropic blast wave parameters near the explosive-air boundary using computer simulation and experimental techniques with varying charge geometry

The prediction of blast wave overpressure using scaled distance calculations use the charge mass and radial distance variables and assumes that the blast wave is isotropic. Simulations and empirical studies demonstrate that altering the charge geometry results in a significant deviation in overpressure vs orientation. While this effect has been measured for cylinders, truncated cones, and cubes, the mechanisms driving geometric blast wave product anisotropy have not been well defined. Velocity vectors plotted from computer simulations in this study show an isotropic radial flow from the cylindrical charges, while the prismatic charges with rectangle, triangle, and five-point star cross sections had significant anisotropy and are overdriven normal to the sides of the charge and underdriven at the corners. The radial expansion of the rim of the dent is measured at the corners and normal to the sides of the charges as an indicator of radial energy distribution and particle flow during breakout. The depth of the dents shows a linear relationship with the breakout radii of the charges with an R2 value of 0.99. The radial displacement of the dent rim from the perimeter of the explosive charge is uniformly 5.5 mm around the cylindrical charge but is up to 1.5 times than normal to the sides of the prismatic charges and zero at the outside corners indicating an energy flow from the detonation wave toward the initial breakout locations.

Structural characterization and regulation of the mechanical properties of the carapace cuticle in tri-spine horseshoe crab (Tachypleus tridentatus)

Horseshoe crab (order Xiphosura) has a large and thick carapace that has evolved as a protective tool to defend against predators and resist impacts from surf-zone turbulence. The naturally occurring spatial variation in the mechanical properties of the carapace cuticle need to be investigated to understand their regulatory mechanism and the underlying design strategies. In this work, we used a combination of high-resolution optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) to evaluate the multiscale microstructure and elemental composition of the cuticle of tri-spine horseshoe crab (Tachypleus tridentatus). The moduli, ultimate strengths, and failure strains of the three individual layers and the entire cuticle were systematically characterized in both the dry and hydrated states. The failure behaviors and energy absorption of the cuticle involved stress stiffening, toughness mechanism and environmental adaptation were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively and then correlated with the morphological features in different cuticle regions. The mechanical properties are primarily influenced by the endocuticle thickness ratio; a higher thickness ratio corresponds to more stacking of the vertical lamellae, leading to a lower modulus, weaker strength, and greater elongation of the endocuticle. Radial energy is absorbed primarily by the endocuticle, with the energy absorbed in the radial direction being nearly twice that absorbed in the circumferential direction. This is attributed to the larger failure strain and relatively small decrease in the stress plateau in the radial direction. The findings provide a deeper understanding of how nature modulates the cuticle's mechanical properties and inspiration for developing high-performance synthetic composites.

Corrosion inhibition performance of azelaic acid dihydrazide: a molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulation study.

The adsorption of azelaic acid dihydrazide as an environmentally friendly mild steel corrosion inhibitor on the iron surface was modeled in this study. We used density functional theory (DFT) calculations and Monte Carlo (MC) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to illustrate the interactions engaged. The interaction of the azelaic acid derivatives with iron metal (Fe) was examined by DFT as a typical example of a corrosion prevention mechanism after the optimized molecular structures of these molecules were investigated. Structures, binding energies, Fikui's charge indicator, electron transfer, and chemical potential are all discussed. The presence of significant binding between the inhibitor and Fe metal is supported by analysis of the resultant complex. Then, in an acidic solution comprising 491 H2O, nine chlorine ion Cl-, and nine hydronium ion H3O+, molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo (MC) simulation were used to model the adsorption of azelaic acid dihydrazide on the iron Fe (110) surface. In addition, radial distribution function (RDF) and interaction energy (Ei) were evaluated in this work to further our understanding of interactions between azelaic acid dihydrazide and iron surfaces. Furthermore, we discovered that our inhibitors have an excellent ability to slow down the movement of corrosive particles in law temperature and thus to inhibit the metallic substrate against corrosive electrolyte, based on the temperature impact investigation. The result of density functional theory and Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics descriptors obtained were in good agreement with the experimental result.

Experimental insights on the water entry of hydrophobic sphere

This article reports experimental insights into the physics of water entry of hydrophobic spheres. In the set of experiments, parameters such as sphere density, diameter, and impact velocity are varied. The trajectory of the sphere after impact, the dynamics of trapped air-cavity, including the cavity formation, and the retraction analysis are given. Furthermore, analysis of the Worthington-jet, the cavity ripple, and early bubble shedding after the air-cavity detachment is carried out. At the location of cavity closure, radial expansion and contraction behavior are reported for the case of the shallow seal (near the air–water interface), while for the deep seal, only one such behavior is observed. Further, five cavity shapes are recorded based on the cavity retraction behavior (i.e., shallow, deep seal), namely, conical shape, slender-cone shape, telescopic shape, spearhead shape, and the thick spearhead shape. The radial dynamics and radial surface energy analysis are reported at various locations on these cavity shapes to find that the thick spearhead cavities hold the most cross-sectional surface energy. The slender-cone shaped cavity generates the fastest Worthington-jet, followed by the telescopic shaped cavities. The thick spearhead shaped cavities are reported to have the longest intact Worthington-jets, followed by the spearhead shaped cavities. Finally, a new regime map is presented for single ripple and multiple ripple behaviors at the time of retraction in the wake of descending spheres. A bubble shedding behavior has also been characterized as the most frequent bubble shedding for shallow seal and associated longer bubble length compared to the other cases.

Learning to isolate muons

Distinguishing between prompt muons produced in heavy boson decay and muons produced in association with heavy-flavor jet production is an important task in analysis of collider physics data. We explore whether there is information available in calorimeter deposits that is not captured by the standard approach of isolation cones. We find that convolutional networks and particle-flow networks accessing the calorimeter cells surpass the performance of isolation cones, suggesting that the radial energy distribution and the angular structure of the calorimeter deposits surrounding the muon contain unused discrimination power. We assemble a small set of high-level observables which summarize the calorimeter information and close the performance gap with networks which analyze the calorimeter cells directly. These observables are theoretically well-defined and can be studied with collider data.

Schwarzschild-like Wormholes in Asymptotically Safe Gravity

In this paper, we analyze the Schwarzschild-like wormhole in the Asymptotically Safe Gravity(ASG) scenario. The ASG corrections are implemented via renormalization group methods, which, as consequence, provides a new tensor Xμν as a source to improved field equations, and promotes the Newton’s constant into a running coupling constant. In particular, we check whether the radial energy conditions are satisfied and compare with the results obtained from the usual theory. We show that only in the particular case of the wormhole being asymptotically flat(Schwarzschild Wormholes) that the radial energy conditions are satisfied at the throat, depending on the chosen values for its radius r0. In contrast, in the general Schwarzschild-like case, there is no possibility of the energy conditions being satisfied nearby the throat, as in the usual case. After that, we calculate the radial state parameter, ω(r), in r0, in order to verify what type of cosmologic matter is allowed at the wormhole throat, and we show that in both cases there is the possibility of the presence of exotic matter, phantom or quintessence-like matter. Finally, we give the ω(r) solutions for all regions of space. Interestingly, we find that Schwarzschild-like Wormholes with excess of solid angle of the sphere in the asymptotic limit have the possibility of having non-exotic matter as source for certain values of the radial coordinate r. Furthermore, it was observed that quantum gravity corrections due the ASG necessarily imply regions with phantom-like matter, both for Schwarzschild and for Schwarzschild-like wormholes. This reinforces the supposition that a phantom fluid is always present for wormholes in this context.

Mapping wet vs gel spinning in Hansen space

The composition of coagulation baths for solution spun fibers are typically established through trial and error. No method currently exists to quantifiably differentiate wet from gel fiber spinning. Hansen Solubility Parameters (HSPs) characterize materials using a 3-dimensional coordinate system for dispersive (δD), dipole-dipole (δP), and hydrogen bonding (δH) forces. This coordinate system was used to quantify the affinity of coagulation baths with respect to the polymer in the spinning solution. A correlation based on radial energy distribution (RED) was seen to consistently differentiate wet from gel spinning. If the HSP distance between the coagulation bath and polymer (Ra) is less than or equal to the inherent interaction radius (Ro) of the polymer (RED ≤ 1), coagulant diffusion inward is observed, which is critical for wet spinning. If Ra is greater than Ro (RED > 1), negligible amounts of coagulant diffusion inward is observed, which is critical for gel spinning. This quantitative approach has applicability to a range of polymeric materials such as fiber, film, and membrane technologies.

Endofistula laser ablation of fistula-in-ano: a new minimally invasive technique for the treatment of fistula-in-ano.

PurposeMany techniques are used to treat fistula-in-ano (FIA). The major problems associated with conventional surgical techniques are postoperative complications like sepsis, incontinence, etc. Therefore, several sphincter-saving techniques have been developed in recent years including laser diodes.MethodsThis study presents an early experience of the use of diode lasers with a capacity of 360° radial energy emission endofistula laser ablation (EFLA) of FIA to treat patients with primary low anal fistulas. The primary and secondary success rates were assessed and the factors affecting these rates were evaluated in patients (n=31) who presented with primary, uncomplicated, and low anal fistulas.ResultsOut of 31 patients, 19 (61.3%) were males and 12 (38.7%) were females with a mean age of 38.6±11.5 years. Twenty-one patients (67.7%) had intersphincteric fistula, 9 (29.0%) had transsphincteric fistula, and 1 (3.2%) had suprasphincteric fistula. Thirteen patients (41.9%) had undergone some surgery in the past for FIA. Eleven patients (35.5%) developed postoperative complications. The patients had a low median pain score of 3 on the numeric pain rating scale. The primary success rate was 67.7% (21 of 31) and the secondary success rate was 80.0% (8 of 10) over a median follow-up of 2 years. A significantly higher primary healing rate was observed in patients who did not undergo any prior surgical treatments (P=0.01).ConclusionEFLA resulted in moderate primary and high secondary success rates and was not associated with major postoperative complications. Therefore, EFLA can be considered as a preferred noninvasive efficient technique for FIA treatment.

Ellis–Bronnikov Wormholes in Asymptotically Safe Gravity

In this paper, we investigate the simplest wormhole solution—the Ellis–Bronnikov one—in the context of the asymptotically safe gravity (ASG) at the Planck scale. We work with three models, which employ the Ricci scalar, Kretschmann scalar, and squared Ricci tensor to improve the field equations by turning the Newton constant into a running coupling constant. For all the cases, we check the radial energy conditions of the wormhole solution and compare them with those that are valid in general relativity (GR). We verified that asymptotic safety guarantees that the Ellis–Bronnikov wormhole can satisfy the radial energy conditions at the throat radius, r0, within an interval of values of the latter, which is quite different from the result found in GR. Following this, we evaluate the effective radial state parameter, ω(r), at r0, showing that the quantum gravitational effects modify Einstein’s field equations in such a way that it is necessary to have a very exotic source of matter to generate the wormhole spacetime–phantom or quintessence-like matter. This occurs within some ranges of the throat radii, even though the energy conditions are or are not violated there. Finally, we find that, although at r0 we have a quintessence-like matter, upon growing r, we inevitably came across phantom-like regions. We speculate whether such a phantom fluid must always be present in wormholes in the ASG context or even in more general quantum gravity scenarios.
