Nonlinear instability of wormholes supported by exotic dust and a magnetic field

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

Recently, spherically symmetric, static wormholes supported by exotic dust and a radial magnetic field have been derived and argued to be stable with respect to linear radial fluctuations. In this report we point out that these wormholes are unstable due to the formation of shell-crossing singularities when the nonlinearities of the theory are taken into account.
