Observation of Mass Transport Stability and Faraday Instability: Why Stable Single Bubble Sonoluminescence is Possible

摘要

Teh region of parameter space (acoustic pressure P(sub a), bubble radius R(sub 0)) in which stable single bubble sonoluminescence (SBSL) occurs in an air-water system is a small fraction of that which is accesible. This is due ot the existence of an island of dissolution at high P(sub a) and small R(sub 0).
