Abstract

To date, many exotic predictions of Einstein's equations have been corroborated, with one exception: wormholes (WHs). In this work, we analyse a new exact solution combination to the Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton or Phantom equations, which represent rotating WHs with magnetic and electric fields. The solution contains a ring singularity that, like other solutions, satisfies Wormhole Cosmic Censorship; that is, the singularity is causally disconnected by the WH throat. We show that this WH is traversable through regions close to the poles, where the tidal forces and magnetic field are reasonably small. We satisfy the energy conditions for the dilaton-like solution. We argue that if dilaton-like interactions can exist in nature, for example, if extra dimensions exist as in superstring theory, WHs are a natural realistic prediction of Einstein's equations, and we should be able to observe them somehow, probably as black hole mimics.We present several examples of realistic WH that may occur in nature, and we also introduce a new exact black hole solution.
