What are Gravitational waves?

Abstract

The purpose of this article is not to present a popular history of mathematical physics nor even to display for the general reader some of the result of research in the history of science, Rather the intention is to explore one important aspect of the great scientific revaluation of recent times which proves the existence of Gravitational wave, predicted by Dr. Albert Einstein about a hundred years ago in his general theory of relativity. Gravitational waves are ripples in the fabric of space time used by some of the most violent and energetic processes in the universe. They am produced by catastrophic events such as colliding Black hole as well as the collapse of stellar super nova.
