Description

The dynamical behavior of traversable wormholes and black holes under impulsive radiation is studied in an exactly soluble dilaton gravity model. Simple solutions are presented where a traversable wormhole is constructed from a black hole, or the throat of a wormhole is stably enlarged or reduced. These solutions illustrate the basic operating principles needed to construct similar analytic solutions in full Einstein gravity
