Distinguishing rotating naked singularities from Kerr-like wormholes by their deflection angles of massive particles

We study the gravitational deflection of relativistic massive particles by Janis-Newman-Winicour (JNW) spacetimes (also known as a rotating source with a surface-like naked singularity), and a rotating Kerr-like wormholes. Based on the recent article [K. Jusufi, Phys. Rev. D 98, 064017 (2018)], we extend some of these results by exploring the effects of naked singularity and Kerr-like objects on the deflection of particles. We start by introducing coordinate transformation leading to an isotropic line element which gives the refraction index of light for the corresponding optical medias. On the other hand, the refraction index for massive particles is found by considering those particles as a de Broglie wave packets. To this end, we apply the Gauss-Bonnet theorem to the isotropic optical metrics to find the deflection angles. Our analysis shows that, in the case of the JNW spacetime the deflection angle is affected by the parameter \(0
