Abstract

In strong gravita onal fields, such as those near black holes or in the early universe, photons  experience significant blueshi , increasing their frequency and energy. This paper proposes a  specula ve mechanism where extreme blueshi triggers a photon-to-par cle transforma on, materializing massive par cles via a novel “Shahar materializa on constant” (κ_s). Drawing on  general rela vity’s symmetries and momentum conserva on, we derive equa ons linking  photon energy to rest mass genera on, while ensuring total momentum balance through gravita onal recoil. Analog strong-field effects can be tested in laboratory centrifuge experiments simula ng effec ve gravita onal poten als. This model bridges quantum field theory and GR, offering testable predic ons for high-energy astrophysics and terrestrial analogs.
