Accretion on a wormhole with monopole magnetic field
The presence of even simple magnetized wormholes may have observable consequences. If the wormhole and its surrounding magnetic fields are static, symmetrical, and spherical, and gas in the vicinity falls radially into the wormhole, the resulting spectrum would feature bright cyclotron or synchrotron lines caused by interactions between charged plasma particles and the magnetic field. This radiation would be non-polarized due to the symmetry of the system. The emission of this exotic, non-thermal yet non-polarized type of radiation could serve as a signature for wormholes. Additionally, in this scenario, the formation of an accretion disk is still possible at some distance from the wormhole; however, a monopole magnetic field may complicate this process and lead to the emergence of asymmetrical and one-sided relativistic jets.
