Abstract
We investigate the propagation of electromagnetic waves through a static wormhole. It is shown that the problem can be reduced to a one dimensional Schrödinger-like equation with a barrier-type potential. Using numerical methods, we calculate the transmission coefficient as a function of the energy. We also discuss the polarization of the outgoing radiation due to this gravitational scattering.
