This research uncovers solutions for traversable wormholes in dark matter frameworks, suggesting feasibility despite exotic matter constraints.
We are exploring the possibility of traversable wormholes existing in a more realistic context. Specifically, we are looking at scenarios that don't rely on exotic factors, like having a mass shell at the throat or allowing particles and antiparticles to coexist without annihilation. To do this, we are constructing wormholes with double power-law density distributions, drawing inspiration from the Dehnen-type dark matter halo in the framework of generalized geometry-matter coupling gravity. Our investigation carefully considers the challenges of traversability and stability, as well as the roles of exotic matter, the exoticity parameter, and the anisotropy parameter. We have discovered solutions that describe asymmetric, asymptotically flat traversable wormholes, supported by a smooth metric and double power-law density distributions. These solutions successfully avoid the problems, giving us hope that such wormholes could actually exist in nature.
