Photon-graviton conversion in an electromagnetic field is a well-known prediction of Einstein-Maxwell theory. First discussed at tree-level by Gertsenshtein in 1962, more recently it has been shown to lead to magnetic dichroism starting…

Graviton-photon conversions in a given external electric or magnetic field, known as the Gertsenshtein mechanism, are usually treated using the four-potential for photons. In terms of the electric and magnetic (EM) fields, however, proper…
