Bookmark or Share- Sonoluminescence - WikipediaSonoluminescence is the emission of light from imploding bubbles in a liquid when excited by sound. Sonoluminescence was first discovered in 1934 at the University of Cologne. It occurs when a sound wave of sufficient intensity induces a gaseous cavity within a liquid to collapse quickly, emitting a burst of light.
- Sonoluminescence: Where sound and light meetThere are many types of energy transformation, but one of the most intriguing is sonoluminescence—a phenomenon in which bubbles turn sound into light. Sonoluminescence was first observed in the 1930s, when photographic plate developers applied ultrasound waves (sound waves that we can’t hear) to photographic film and noticed that it became foggy.
- Sonoluminescence: How Bubbles Turn Sound into LightSonoluminescence: How Bubbles Turn Sound into Light. Sonoluminescence, the transduction of sound into light, is a phenomenon that pushes fluid mechanics beyond its limit. An initial state with long wavelength and low Mach number, such as is realized for a gas bubble driven by an audible sound field, spontaneously focuses the energy density so ...
- Sonoluminescence - an overview | ScienceDirect TopicsThere are two types of sonoluminescence. One is the multibubble sonoluminescence (MBSL), when the plethora of the formed and collapsed bubbles emit only a few photons. The other is the single-bubble sonoluminescence (SBSL), when only one bubble is illuminated with high intensity.
