| contents | In this work, we explore the thermal effects on Casimir wormholes in the context of higher-dimensional Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity. Motivated by the fundamental role of EGB gravity in describing a wide range of gravitational phenomena, we investigate how thermal fluctuations affect the quantum vacuum energy density associated with the Casimir effect and its impact on the global structure of traversable wormholes. By deriving the shape function from the EGB field equations with thermally corrected Casimir energy, we verify that all necessary conditions for wormhole formation are satisfied, including asymptotic flatness and throat stability. Our results indicate that thermal corrections modify of the wormhole geometry, increasing spatial curvature in the throat region and influencing its traversability. Furthermore, we analyze gravitational Casimir effects and discuss their possible role in modified gravity theories. Expanding on the approach of reference \cite{M. Zubair1, Mushayydha, Mushayydha2}, we adopt here the appropriate formulation for Casimir wormholes in Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity, taking into account the Casimir energy density in higher dimensions. This approach allows us to obtain more accurate results compared to the simplified approximation previously used. |
