If matter is generated from light via pair production, the gravitational signature of mass cannot spontaneously emerge upon particle creation; it must be an intrinsic, constitutive component of electromagnetic radiation. This paper establishes the Gravity, Electricity, and Magnetism (GEM) triad, demonstrating that the transverse electric and magnetic forces on charge are inextricably coupled to a third, longitudinal force: the gravitational metric tension on mass-energy. By identifying the electromagnetic stress-energy tensor (TμνEM) as the rank-2 bridge to spacetime curvature, we establish that the vacuum constants ϵ0, μ0, and G are not independent phenomenological values, but the permittivity, permeability, and metric stiffness of a single continuous medium. We model the conversion of radiation to matter as a topological compactification: a unitary rotation of the wavevector (k→iκ) that compactifies longitudinal propagation into static inertia. Crucially, this gravitational component is functionally necessary for photon-matter interaction. The quantum requirement for directed momentum (k ≠ 0) is identically the condition that sources spacetime curvature (T0iEM ≠ 0). A photon stripped of its capacity to source gravity would carry no momentum and could not be absorbed. Companion Research: This paper serves as the foundational geometric framework for the OMEGA 137 architecture, detailing the first-principles derivation of G and the Fine-Structure Constant (α).
