A single bubble in water is excited by a standing ultrasound wave. At high intensity the bubble starts to emit light. Together with the emitted light pulse, a shock wave is generated in the liquid at collapse time. The time-dependent…
Oscillations of gas bubbles in liquids irradiated with acoustic pressure waves may result in an intriguing physical phenomenon called sonoluminescence, where a collapsing bubble emits the light in a broad optical spectral range. However,…
We are discussing Schwinger'idea that physical mechanism of sonoluminescence is a physical vacuum excitation. This theory was based on the assumption that the sudden change of the rate of bubble collapse leads to the jump of dielectric…
Single bubble sonoluminescence is understood in terms of a shock focusing towards the bubble center. We present a mechanism for significantly enhancing the effect of shock focusing, arising from the storage of energy in the acoustic modes…
The phenomenon of sonoluminescence (SL), originally observed some sixty years ago, has recently become the focus of renewed interest, particularly with the discovery that one can trap a single bubble and induce it to exhibit SL stably over…
This paper discusses a quantum optical heating mechanism which might play an important role in sonoluminescence experiments. We suggest that this mechanism occurs during the final stages of the bubble collapse phase and accompanies the…
The rise in temperature from the adiabatic compression of a bubble is computed in thermodynamic mean field (van der Waals) theory. It is shown that the temperature rise is higher for the noble gas atoms than for more complex gas molecules.…
Sonoluminescence is the phenomena of light emission from a collapsing gas bubble in a liquid. Theoretical explanations of this extreme energy focusing are controversial and difficult to validate experimentally. We propose to use molecular…
A refined hydrochemical model for single-bubble sonoluminescence (SBSL) is presented. The processes of water vapor evaporation and condensation, mass diffusion, and chemical reactions are taken into account. Numerical simulations of Xe-,…
Sonoluminescence is explained in terms of quantum radiation by moving interfaces between media of different polarizability. It can be considered as a dynamic Casimir effect, in the sense that it is a consequence of the imbalance of the…
Careful re-examination of typical experimental data made it possible to show that the UV continua observed in multi-bubble (MBSL) and single-bubble (SBSL) sonoluminescence spectra have the same physical nature - radiative dissociation of…
A commonly accepted view is that stable Single Bubble Sonoluminescence (SBSL) can only be achieved in the presence of a noble gas or hydrogen. In air-seeded bubbles, the content of diatomic gasses is burned off to leave the small amount of…
Light emission in sonoluminescence is shown to be a lasing process with a wide gain bandwidth. Population inversion of the gas molecules inside the bubble is achieved by hydrodynamical pumping. Analytic expressions are derived for the…
UV continua observed in multi-bubble and single-bubble sonoluminescence spectra of hydrogen-containing liquids have the same physical nature - radiative dissociation of electronically excited hydrogen molecules (and possibly hydrides of…
We measured the timing of sonoluminescence by observing laser light scattered from a single sonoluminescing bubble. We performed this measurement on 23.5 kHz, 17.8 kHz, 13.28 kHz and 7920 Hz systems, and found that the flash typically…
In this paper we present an experimental approach that allows to deduce the important dynamical parameters of single sonoluminescing bubbles (pressure amplitude, ambient radius, radius-time curve) The technique is based on a few previously…
Sonoluminescence is a phenomenon which is known for some time, relatively easy to produce but still not fully understood. A milestone was discovery of procedure for creating Single Bubble Sonoluminescene (SBSL) \cite{gaitan} in 1989.…
We consider the correlation of the electromagnetic field to determine spatial coherence inside a sonoluminescing bubble. We explicitly calculate the first order correlation function for two limiting cases of the excitation field: a…
The apparatus description for control of the time parameters of photomultipliers with high time resolution is described. For generation of ultrashort light flashes have been used sonoluminescence effect -- emission of the light flashes…
We contest the recent claim by C. Eberlein (Physical Review Letters 76 (1996) 3842) that sonoluminescence may be explained in terms of quantum vacuum radiation. Due to fundamental physical limitations on bubble surface velocity, the…
