    A brain wave is a rhythmic or repetitive pattern of neural activity in the central nervous system. It is generated by the brain's neurons communicating with each other through electrical signals, which can be detected and measured by an electroencephalogram (EEG). Brain waves are typically classified into several different types based on their frequency, including alpha, beta, delta, theta, and gamma waves, each associated with different states of consciousness and mental activity.
