Can large explosions generate wormholes?
My background is in astrophysics, and while wormholes are valid Einstein-Rosen bridge solutions, they require exotic matter for stability. I'm trying to reconcile mathematical solutions with known energetic events in the universe. The question is whether any known explosive process, even at stellar scales, could bridge the gap between theory and potential reality.

While I appreciate the creative thought, my work in GR suggests the answer is a firm no. I have seen many solutions linking wormholes to extreme energy, but a conventional explosion, even a supernova, only creates a region of high density and positive pressure. This collapses into a black hole. To stabilize a wormhole's throat, you need exotic matter material with negative energy density which violates standard energy conditions and isn't produced by any known explosive process. The required physics is purely speculative.
