Fluid Dynamics in the Ellis Wormhole

Abstract

In the Ellis wormhole metrics we study characteristics of fluid dynamics and the properties of linear sound waves. By implying the energy-momentum equation and the continuity equation in the general relativistic manner we examine the flow dynamics and solve the corresponding equations for a relatively simple case - radial flow. To study the linear sound waves the equations governing the mentioned physical system are linearized and solved and interesting characteristic properties are found.
