We obtain exact analytical solutions that extend the charged Vaidya-type solution of GR, which allows to explore in detail new physics at the Planck scale. Starting from Minkowski space, we find that the collapsing fluid generates wormholes supported by the electric field. We discuss the relevance of our findings in relation to the quantum foam structure of space-time and the meaning of curvature divergences in this theory.", optnote="WOS:000334094500028", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=1757), last updated on Fri, 16 May 2014 12:02:19 +0000", issn="0370-2693", doi="10.1016/j.physletb.2014.02.038", opturl="http://arxiv.org/abs/1311.5712", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physletb.2014.02.038", archivePrefix="arXiv", eprint="1311.5712", language="English" }
