For years, scientists have theorized that some black holes could actually be wormholes, and a new study shows that this space-time mimicry could in fact be possible.

Astronomers might detect black holes falling into wormholes via ripples in space and time known as gravitational waves, if wormholes exist and such a scenario ever happened, a new study finds.

In the paper, the researchers argue that wormholes, like black holes, would be massive enough to magnify distant objects behind them. "The magnification via the distortion by a wormhole can be ...

In theory, however, a black hole may be paired with a mirror twin, called a white hole, to form a wormhole. Still, these theoretical wormholes would look nothing like the ones depicted in science ...

A new study has been accepted by the Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics that proposes two new models of black ...

Physicists suggest wormholes, hypothetical tunnels linking one part of the universe to another, might be disguised as black holes.

Gamble wrote his PhD on funky solutions to those equations, of which there are many — like black holes and yes, wormholes. In theory, a wormhole would be created by connecting a blackhole ...

In it, the authors discuss how it may be possible to use data from the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) to determine whether or not a black hole is a traversable wormhole or just a standard black hole.

Liu also noted that wormholes would magnify objects differently than black holes do, meaning scientists could distinguish the two. For example, microlensing via a black hole is known to produce ...
