Abstract

In daily life, we can transmit and obtain information through mechanical waves and electromagnetic waves. For example, judging where the fish swims from the flooded water waves, and learns from the wonderful music to know what kind of instrument the musicians are playing and communicating through the radio waves. Gravitational waves, a fundamental prediction of Einstein's theory of general relativity, have revolutionized our understanding of the universe. This essay explores the background of research on gravitational waves, tracing their theoretical origins to the early 20th century and highlighting their recent detection in 2015. The research technique employed involves highly sensitive interferometers, such as LIGO and Virgo, which can detect the minuscule distortions in space-time caused by these elusive waves. By observing the gravitational waves emitted during cataclysmic cosmic events, scientists can now delve deeper into the nature of black holes, neutron stars, and the origin of our universe. In conclusion, the discovery of gravitational waves opens up new avenues for exploring the cosmos, providing unprecedented insights into the fabric of space-time itself.
