Abstract
The theory of Hybrid metric-Palatini gravity was proposed by Harko et al. [Metric-Palatini gravity unifying local constraints and late-time cosmic acceleration, Phys. Rev. D 85 (2012) 084016.] in 2012 which could explain both local and cosmological observations. In this paper, this theory has been taken into account to obtain static, spherical, and symmetric charged traversable wormhole solutions. The shape of the wormhole is determined in two different cases with the simplest form of scalar field potential. It is obtained that asymptotically flat wormholes are possible in each case. The energy conditions, namely, null, weak, and strong energy conditions are tested in each case and the results are compared.
