Imaging Sonoluminescence

Abstract

A bubble in a water/glycerine mixture trapped at the pressure anti- node of a resonant broadband flashes of light. Optical magnification and imaging of the light source has given insight into the spatial extent of the sonoluminescence (SL) source. This experiment shows that the SL source has a radius less than 1.5 microns. Sonoluminescence.
