Alternative method to deduce bubble dynamics in single-bubble sonoluminescence experiments - art. no. 026320

摘要

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 confirmed theoretical assumptions and requires the knowledge of quantities such as the amplitude of the electric excitation and the phase of the flashes in the acoustic period. These quantities are easily measurable by a digital oscilloscope, avoiding the cost of the expensive lasers or ultrafast cameras of previous methods. We show the technique in a particular example and compare the results with conventional Mie scattering. We find that within the experimental uncertainties these two techniques provide similar results. [References: 55]
