We study the scattering of monochromatic planar scalar waves in a geometry that interpolates between the Schwarzschild solution, regular black holes and traversable wormhole spacetimes. We employ the partial waves approach to compute the differential scattering cross section of the regular black hole, as well as of the wormhole solutions. We compare our full numerical results with the classical geodesic scattering and the glory approximation, obtaining excellent agreement in the appropriate regime of validity of such approximations. We obtain that the differential scattering cross section for the regular black hole case is similar to the Schwarzschild result. Notwithstanding, the results for wormholes can be very distinctive from the black hole ones. In particular, we show that the differential scattering cross section for wormholes considerably decreases at large scattering angles for resonant frequencies.

  1. Resonant transmission of scalar waves through rotating traversable wormhole

    gr-qc 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Rotation enhances Breit-Wigner resonances in scalar wave transmission through Teo wormholes by trapping modes in the throat potential well.

  2. Three dimensional black bounces in $f(R)$ gravity

    gr-qc 2026-01 conditional novelty 5.0

    Black bounce geometries exist in 2+1D f(R) gravity with scalar-nonlinear electrodynamics matter, including vanishing scalar curvature solutions whose viability is checked via scalaron mass and energy conditions.

  3. Roche limit and stellar disruption in the Simpson--Visser spacetime

    gr-qc 2026-01 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Tidal forces in the Simpson-Visser spacetime produce Roche radii for stars that depend on observer type and regularization, with some disruptions occurring outside the event horizon for supermassive black holes.
