Spinning Wormholes in Scalar-Tensor Theory

Understand

We consider spinning generalizations of the Ellis wormhole in scalar-tensor theory.

• Analogous to other compact objects these wormholes can carry a non-trivial scalarization.
• We determine the domain of existence of the scalarized wormholes and investigate the effect of the scalarization on their properties.
• Depending on the choice of the coupling function, they may possess multiple throats and equators in the Jordan frame, while possessing only a single throat in the Einstein frame.
