From the standpoint of the general theory of relativity, the propagation of an electromagnetic field in a slightly curved space-time is analyzed. It is established that when a laser beam propagates in a vacuum filled with an electromagnetic field, the curvature of the space-time metric corresponds to the gravitational field described by the wave equation with a quadratic electromagnetic source. Authors show that this equation corresponds to a coupled two-photon state — a para-photon. A synchronous propagation of gravitational and para-photon fields was detected. The hypothesis is advanced of para-photon as a quasiparticle of the gravitational field. The results obtained are of fundamental importance both for constructing the quantum theory of gravity and for the problem of direct laboratory generation of high-frequency gravitational waves.
