This paper presents black bounce solutions in Conformal Killing Gravity (CKG), coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics (NLED) and scalar fields. The theory, CKG, is designed to meet three key criteria: (i) the cosmological constant is an integration constant, (ii) energy-momentum conservation follows from the field equations, and (iii) conformally flat metrics are not necessarily vacuum solutions. The authors extend static and spherically symmetric solutions and explore black bounce geometries in CKG with NLED and scalar fields. They derive new NLED Lagrangian densities and scalar potentials, and generalize existing black bounce solutions. The study also examines the regularity of solutions and their spacetime structures, including the Bardeen-type and Simpson-Visser geometries. The black bounce spacetime features an event horizon with a bounce connecting different regions of spacetime. The authors analyze various scenarios with different parameters, showing how the presence or absence of horizons depends on the mass, charge, and cosmological constant. They also investigate the behavior of the Kretschmann scalar and the regularity of solutions. The results demonstrate that black bounce solutions can be constructed in CKG with NLED and scalar fields, extending the class of known solutions and providing new insights into the structure of spacetime in this modified gravity theory.This paper presents black bounce solutions in Conformal Killing Gravity (CKG), coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics (NLED) and scalar fields.
