AbstractAbstract
[en] The properties of a particular Misner–Thorne wormhole (WH) are investigated. The ‘exotic stress–energy’ needed to maintain the WH open corresponds to a massless scalar field whose Lagrangean density contains a negative kinetic term. While the Komar energy of the spacetime is vanishing due to the negative energy density and radial pressure, the ADM energy is (minus) the Planck energy. The timelike geodesics are hyperbolae and any static observer is inertial. The null radial trajectories are also hyperbolae and Lorentz invariant as Coleman–de Luccia expanding bubble or Ipser–Sikivie domain wall. Using a different equation of state for the fluid on the dynamic WH throat of Redmount and Suen, we reached an equation of motion for the throat (a hyperbola) that leads to a negative surface energy density and the throat expands with the same acceleration as the Ipser–Sikivie domain wall.
