Light deflection by charged wormholes in Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton theory

Abstract: In this paper, we study the deflection of light by a class of charged wormholes within the context of the Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton theory. The primordial wormholes are predicted to exist in the early universe, where inflation driven by the dilaton field. We perform our analysis through optical geometry using the Gibbons-Werner method (GW), by adopting the Gauss-Bonnet theorem and the standard geodesics approach. We report an interesting result for the deflection angle in leadingorder terms-namely, the deflecti… Show more

“…In Refs. [21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34] we find applications of the method to the study of a variety of different spacetimes with spherical symmetry, and in [35] the method was modified by Werner in order to allow the study of gravitational lensing in rotating and stationary spacetimes. This new version was applied to a variety of metrics in Refs.…”

“…In a geometrical approach to gravitational lensing theory, Gibbons and Werner showed how the Gauss-Bonnet theorem can be applied to the computation of the light deflection angle in the weak deflection limit for static and spherically symmetric spacetimes [19]. The application of this method for wormhole cases was done in references [24,25]. In this section, we apply this method to compute the deflection angle of a light ray passing close to the wormhole described by the solution of section 3.…”

“…Recently, Ishihara et al [27][28][29][30] computed the deflection angle in a static, spherically symmetric and asymptotically flat space by using the finite distance from an observer to a light source. Moreover, the GBT has been stretched out to the wormhole geometries and non-asymptotically flat spacetime with topological effects [31][32][33]. A very important contribution has been currently made by Jusufi andÖvgün [34] who discussed about the quantum correction effects on the deflection of light by quantum improved Kerr BH pierced in cosmic string.…”
