Abstract

This paper investigates a possible wormhole and associated metrics, and the physical consequences of these geometries. Using the wormhole metric, the solution of Einstein's equation suggests that the energy density component of the energy-momentum tensor is negative. This result implies that a stable wormhole requires negative energy, and is consistent with Penrose's theory. An evaluation of a representative set of spacetime geometries suggests that the occurrence of negative energy does not universally occur in every theoretical spacetime geometry. It does not occur in flat spacetime or in the Schwarzschild geometry. Negative energies theoretically occur under a limited set of conditions for a general static spherical geometry and the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker spacetime. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
