High Energy Photon/Curved Space Limit??

Energy curves space.

The smaller the wavelength of a photon, the higher its energy.

With regards to a high energy photon,

Could there be an energy threshold for a photon at which its high energy could curve space to such an extent that the photon could be put orbiting the very space that its own high energy curved?

Don't you think that, before we go to that extreme, that we must first show the "proof of principle" experiment that the energy from a photon can actually cause space to curve? Don't you want to crawl first before you actually run the sprints in the Olympics?

Na, it is too much fun coming up with such ideas!

Not if it is unsupported and full of holes. Then it can only be done in the IR forum, not on here.

physics should not be fun, it should be consistent and supportable. Otherwise you are just making a fairytale story (science fiction).
 
Toponium is a hadron which is the bound state of a valance top quark and a valance antitop quark. Oversimplified presentations often state that top quarks don't form hadrons, because they decay to bottom quarks extremely rapidly after they are created, leaving no time to form a hadron. And, the vast majority of the time, this is true. But, the lifetime of a top quark is only an average lifetime. Sometimes it decays faster and sometimes it decays slower. In the highly improbable case that...
I'm following this paper by Kitaev on SL(2,R) representations and I'm having a problem in the normalization of the continuous eigenfunctions (eqs. (67)-(70)), which satisfy \langle f_s | f_{s'} \rangle = \int_{0}^{1} \frac{2}{(1-u)^2} f_s(u)^* f_{s'}(u) \, du. \tag{67} The singular contribution of the integral arises at the endpoint u=1 of the integral, and in the limit u \to 1, the function f_s(u) takes on the form f_s(u) \approx a_s (1-u)^{1/2 + i s} + a_s^* (1-u)^{1/2 - i s}. \tag{70}...
