For massless wormholes the perturbations decouple, and we obtain two identical master equations for the scalar and gravitational modes, which moreover agree with the master equation for the axial modes. Consequently there is isospectrality with threefold degenerate modes. For a finite mass of the background wormhole solutions, the equations are coupled. We then obtain two distinct branches of polar quasinormal modes for a given multipole number l, associated with the presence of the two types of fields. We calculate the quasinormal mode frequencies and decay rates for the branches with l = 2, 3 and 4. For a given l the real frequencies of the two branches get the closer, the higher the multipole number gets.engjournal article2470-0029https://journals.aps.org/prd/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevD.107.084024http://dx.doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.107.084024open access51-73Quasi-normal modesParticle modelDrainholeSystemsShadowFísica matemática2212 Física Teórica
