Epicyclic frequencies in the equatorial plane around stationary and axially symmetric wormhole geometries

Epicyclic frequencies are usually observed in X-ray binaries and constitute a powerful astrophysical mean to probe the strong gravitational field around a compact object. We consider them in the equatorial plane around a general stationary and axially symmetric wormhole. We first search for the wormholes’ existence, distinguishing them from a Kerr black hole. Once there will be available observational data on wormholes, we present a strategy to reconstruct the related metrics. Finally, we discuss the implications of our approach and outline possible future perspectives.
