We develop a number of novel black-bounce spacetimes. These are specific regular black holes where the area radius always remains non-zero, thereby leading to a throat that is either timelike (corresponding to a traversable wormhole), spacelike (corresponding to a bounce into a future universe), or null (corresponding to a one-way wormhole). We shall first perform a general analysis of the regularity conditions for such a spacetime, and then consider a number of specific examples. The examples are constructed using a mass function similar to that of Fan--Wang, and fall into several particular cases, such as the original Simpson--Visser model, a Bardeen-type model, and other generalizations thereof. We shall analyse the regularity, the energy conditions, and the causal structure of these models. The main results are several new geometries, more complex than before, with two or more horizons, with the possibility of an extremal case. We shall derive a general theorem regarding static space-time regularity, and another general theorem regarding (non)-satisfaction of the classical energy conditions.
We study the evolution of electromagnetic field and scalar field under the background of novel black-bounce spacetimes. Our results show an obvious echoes signal that can characterize the properties of novel black-bounce spacetimes, and a detailed analysis about the characteristics of the echoes signal is given. By studying the quasinormal ringdown of the three states of novel black-bounce spacetimes, we find that the echoes signal only appears when $a>2M$ in this spacetime, but when the parameter $a$ increases to a threshold, the echoes signal will be transformed into a quasinormal ringdown of the two-way traversable wormhole.
Given the recent development of rotating black-bounce-Kerr spacetimes, for both theoretical and observational purposes it becomes interesting to see whether it might be possible to construct black-bounce variants of the entire Kerr-Newman family. Specifically, herein we shall consider black-bounce-Reissner-Nordstrom and black-bounce-Kerr-Newman spacetimes as particularly simple and clean everywhere-regular black hole mimickers that deviate from the Kerr-Newman family in a precisely controlled and minimal manner, and smoothly interpolate between regular black holes and traversable wormholes. While observationally the electric charges on astrophysical black holes are likely to be extremely low, $|Q|/m ll 1$, introducing any non-zero electric charge has a significant theoretical impact. In particular, we verify the existence of a Killing tensor (and associated Carter-like constant) but without the full Killing tower of principal tensor and Killing-Yano tensor, also we discuss how, assuming general relativity, the black-bounce-Kerr-Newman solution requires an interesting, non-trivial matter/energy content.
Based on the recently introduced black-bounce spacetimes, we shall consider the construction of the related spherically symmetric thin-shell traversable wormholes within the context of standard general relativity. All of the really unusual physics is encoded in one simple parameter $a$ which characterizes the scale of the bounce. Keeping the discussion as close as possible to standard general relativity is the theorists version of only adjusting one feature of the model at a time. We shall modify the standard thin-shell traversable wormhole construction, each bulk region now being a black-bounce spacetime, and with the physics of the thin shell being (as much as possible) derivable from the Einstein equations. Furthermore, we shall apply a dynamical analysis to the throat by considering linearized radial perturbations around static solutions, and demonstrate that the stability of the wormhole is equivalent to choosing suitable properties for the exotic material residing on the wormhole throat. The construction is sufficiently novel to be interesting, and sufficiently straightforward to be tractable.
Morris & Thorne cite{morris1} proposed geometrical objects called traversable wormholes that act as bridges in connecting two spacetimes or two different points of the same spacetime. The geometrical properties of these wormholes depend upon the choice of the shape function. In literature, these are studied in modified gravities for different types of shape functions. In this paper, the traversable wormholes having shape function $b(r)=frac{r_0tanh(r)}{tanh(r_0)}$ are explored in $f(R)$ gravity with $f(R)=R+alpha R^m-beta R^{-n}$, where $alpha$, $beta$, $m$ and $n$ are real constants. For different values of constants in function $f(R)$, the analysis is done in various cases. In each case, the energy conditions, equation of state parameter and anisotropic parameter are determined.
We present a set of inner boundary conditions for the numerical construction of dynamical black hole space-times, when employing a 3+1 constrained evolution scheme and an excision technique. These inner boundary conditions are heuristically motivated by the dynamical trapping horizon framework and are enforced in an elliptic subsystem of the full Einstein equation. In the stationary limit they reduce to existing isolated horizon boundary conditions. A characteristic analysis completes the discussion of inner boundary conditions for the radiative modes.
