Gravity Waves: Detection

Scientific paper

The aim of this paper on the experimental research on gravitational waves is to stimulate the interest of the scientific community on this subject. In the following the author tries to stress the impact of this subject on fundamental physics, and the interdisciplinary aspects involved in the present experimental efforts. Details of current experiments will not be given. The author summarizes the main features of gravitational waves and some of the principle astrophysical processes involving emission of gravitational radiation. He then reviews the detection principles, the intrinsic limits of the detectors and the peculiarities of the gravitational-wave data analysis.
