Validation of energy conditions in wormhole geometry within viable f(R) gravity

Abstract In this work, wormholes, tunnel like structures introduced by Morris and Thorne (Am J Phys 56:395, 1988), are explored within the framework of f(R) gravity. Using the shape function $$b(r)=r_0\big (\frac{r}{r_0}\big )^\gamma $$ b(r)=r0(rr0)γ , where $$0<\gamma <1$$ 0<γ<1 , and t...
