Scalar-Field Wave Dynamics and Quasinormal Modes of the Teo Rotating Wormhole
Ramesh Radhakrishnan, Gerald Cleaver, Delaram Mirfendereski +2
We investigate scalar field perturbations of the rotating Teo wormhole. We also compute the quasinormal mode (QNM) spectrum using first order WKB approximation. After separation of…

Gauge-Invariant Gravitational Wave Polarization in Metric f(R) Gravity with Cosmological Implications
Ramesh Radhakrishnan, David McNutt, Delaram Mirfendereski +4
We develop a fully gauge invariant analysis of gravitational wave polarizations in metric f(R) gravity with a particular focus on the modified Starobinsky model, whose constant cur…

A Review of Stable, Traversable Wormholes in f (R) Gravity Theories
Ramesh Radhakrishnan, Patrick Brown, Jacob Mutulevich +3
It has been proven that in standard Einstein gravity, exotic matter is required to stabilize traversable wormholes. Quantum field theory permits these violations due to the quantum…
