Wormholes in a viscous universe

preprint2022arXivOpen access

Abstract

We study the static and spherically symmetric wormhole spacetime configurations at present time in a viscous universe. Considering three classes of viscous models, i.e., bulk viscosity as a function of Hubble constant H0H_0, present cosmic temperature T0T_0 and dark energy density ρ0ρ_0, respectively, we obtain several wormhole solutions. Through the analysis for the anisotropic solutions, we conclude that, to some extent, these three classes of viscous models have very high degeneracy with each other, and deviate slightly from the ideal fluid consequence. Subsequently, without the loss of generality, to investigate the traversabilities, energy conditions and stability for the wormhole solution, we study the wormhole solution of the constant redshift function of the viscous ωωCDM model with a constant bulk viscosity coefficient. We obtain the following conclusions: the value of traversal velocity decreases for decreasing bulk viscosity, and the traversal velocity for a traveler depends on not only the wormhole geometry but also the effects of cosmological background evolution; the null energy condition will be violated more clearly when the bulk viscosity or the cosmic expansion velocity decreases; for the case of a positive surface energy density, the range of the junction radius decreases and the values of the parameter λλ are further restricted when the throat radius of the wormhole r0/Mr_0/M increases, bulk viscosity coefficient ζ0ζ_0 decreases and present-day Hubble parameter H0H_0 decreases, respectively; for the case of a negative surface energy density, by increasing r0/Mr_0/M, decreasing ζ0ζ_0 and increasing H0H_0, the values of the parameter λλ are less restricted, one may conclude that the total stability region increases, and the range of the junction radius increases, increases and decreases, respectively. \end{abstract}
