ABSTRACT First proposed in early studies on gravitational space propulsion, this paper presents a new demonstration of the "Theorem of Gravitational Wave Generation through Photon Reflection" and explores its far-reaching technological applications. Beyond its theoretical significance and in contrast with current models, the theorem offers promising avenues for terrestrial implementation. We show that, at least in the particular case of a sphere with a reflective, massless surface filled with electromagnetic energy E, the external gravitational field of the sphere must consist of gravitons/ gravitational waves generated upon photon reflection at the sphere’s surface. (This is a direct consequence of the recently demonstrated Nordstrom-Einstein paradox.) Furthermore, we demonstrate that the energy of each graviton emitted during the reflection of light scales with the cube of its frequency (ν³), revealing a direct coupling between electromagnetism and gravitation. Departing from conventional approaches, this work analyses energy–momentum transfer during photon reflection and demonstrates its ability to induce localized graviton emission along with measurable spacetime perturbations. This mechanism provides an alternative theoretical framework for the quantization of gravity while seamlessly recovering the predictions of general relativity in the classical limit. We further propose experimental equipment based on high-reflectivity optical cavities, which can generate a uniform gravity field with an intensity that can be measured with a high-precision balance. Simultaneously, such equipment allows the demonstration of the proposed theorem as a fundamental physical law. By enabling the laboratory generation of high-frequency, high-intensity gravitational waves, this approach opens new directions for probing the quantum structure of spacetime. |
