Abstract:
The motivation for constructing a thin-shell wormhole from a (2+1)-dimensional rotating black hole arises from the desire to study the effects of a nonminimally coupled scalar field in this particular spacetime. By investigating the behavior of such a field in the presence of rotation, we can gain insights into the interplay between gravity and scalar fields in lower-dimensional systems. Additionally, this construction allows us to explore potential connections between black hole physics and exotic phenomena like traversable wormholes. The radial perturbation around the equilibrium throat radius is considered to explore the stable configuration for specific values of physical parameters. Then, the equations of state, specifically the phantom-like and generalized Chaplygin gas model for exotic matter is used to conduct an extensive investigation into the stability of the counter-rotating thin-shell wormholes. Our results show that the presence of a scalar field enhances the stability of the counter-rotating thin-shell wormholes.

The minimum speed required to launch a projectile from the surface of an object to which it is gravitationally bound so that it eventually escapes the object’s gravitational field is called the escape velocity. The escape velocity is independent of the mass of the object. Merging the idea of escape...

Stability of Equilibrium Configuration
A stable equilibrium occurs when a system tends to return to its original position when given a small displacement, and the potential energy is at its minimum. An example of a stable equilibrium is when a cantilever beam is fixed at one end and a weight is attached to the other end. If the weight...
