Traversable wormholes without exotic matter

Traversable wormholes are intriguing geometries in General Relativity, which have leaked into science fiction becoming known to the general public. Yet, they typically require exotic matter. In a paper in Phys. Rev. Lett., as Editor's suggestion, Gr@v member E. Radu, together with J. Blázquez-Salcedo (Complutense U.) and C. Knoll (U. Oldenburg), have shown how to construct wormholes in General Relativity without the use of exotic matter (or modified gravity).
