Abstract:
In this article, we consider the Hawking radiation (HR) of vector (massive spin-1) particles
from the traversable Lorentzian wormholes (TLWH) in 3+1 dimensions. We start by providing the Proca
equations for the TLWH. Using the Hamilton-Jacobi (HJ) ansatz with the WKB approximation in the
quantum tunneling method, we obtain the probabilities of the emission/absorption modes. Then, we derive
the tunneling rate of the emitted vector particles and manage to read the standard Hawking temperature
of the TLWH. The result obtained represents a negative temperature, which is also discussed.
