Response to ``Comment on `Primordial magnetic seed field amplification by gravitational waves' "

TL;DR

This paper defends previous findings on magnetic field amplification by gravitational waves, addressing and refuting critiques that questioned the validity of those results.

Contribution

It clarifies and reaffirms the original conclusions on magnetic field amplification, countering flawed arguments presented in the comment.

Findings

Original results on magnetic field amplification are correct

Critique by Tsagas is flawed and invalidates no conclusions

Supports the validity of the initial study's methodology and results

Abstract

Here we respond to the comment by Tsagas (gr-qc/0503042) on our paper gr-qc/0503006. We show that the results in that comment are flawed and cannot be used for drawing conclusion about the nature of magnetic field amplification by gravitational waves, and give further support that the results of gr-qc/0503006 are correct.
