Detecting Gravitational Waves: Signatures of Cosmic Collisions

How merging black holes create ripples in spacetime that travel across the cosmos, and how interferometric detectors on Earth measure these infinitesimal distortions. This article reviews the physics of gravitational wave generation, the technology enabling their detection, and what these observations reveal about binary black hole systems.
