Can a Wormhole Generate its Own Magnetic Field?


Source: Universe Today

Wormholes are a strange consequence of Einstein's theory of general relativity. These "shortcuts" through the fabric of space and time may link two different locations in the universe; they may even connect two different universes together. This also leads to the possibility that wormholes can allow travel between two points in time. These strange entities have provided science fiction stories with material for many years, but there is credible physics behind wormholes. Now it seems that in theory slowly-rotating wormholes may be able to generate their own magnetic field. Could this be used to detect the presence of wormholes in our observable Universe? (read more)
