in my post there is a link for a powerful source of these waves but any source is good enough.
Here I use an analogy with the waves in the ocean that were discovered to create very strong unexpected phenomenas. When a field is strong enough it can create matter. So, it would be something similar to Hawking radiation or creation of electron positron pairs from gamma rays.
I was most impressed by a single fact of physics that all energy in ordinary matter is equal to the negative potential gravitational energy of that matter.
I read somewhere, maybe quantum gravity theories, where one creates the other, so I would have to search it again, unless someone here can help me.
Please notice that inside another comment in this post I have addressed that question.
The gravitational wave background you linked is extremely weak, it took decades of measurements of pulsar timing and complex signal processing to even see hints of it. In general, the gravitational force is so much weaker than the other forces that it can be ignored except on very large scales. So I’m not seeing how a rogue gravitational wave would produce sufficient energy density for creating matter via pair production or some other mechanism. You would need extremely large amplitude gravitational waves, which would require some even more energetic mechanism for generating them. Maybe this is something you can work into your model?
I’m not sure what you mean by this, could you point me to a reference where you saw this statement?
Great! I look forward to it.
I need some rest now. I will try to be back some other time.
