Abstract

Connections between universes through tunneling space-times could make the multiverse a physical entity able to be observed from our own single universe. In this paper we first study the thermal properties of the static Klein-bottle holes and then consider one of the potentially observable effects from wormholes, ringholes, and nonorientable tunnelings when they are converted into time machines connecting other universes with ours own, that is a randomly varying in space and time thermal radiation which, with an unpredictable cadence, randomly manifested to a far observer as a short, occasional pulse with very high intensity and fluence which would be made of black body phantom or ordinary radiation. We discuss the odds for these bursts of thermal radiation to be eventually observable.
