Jets from Collapsing Bubbles
نویسنده
چکیده
When an asymmetric bubble collapses it generally produces a well defined high velocity jet. This is remarkable because one might expect such a collapse to produce a complex or chaotic flow rather than an ordered one. I present a dimensional argument for the ubiquity of jets from collapsing bubbles, and model the aspherical collapse of a bubble with pieces of Rayleigh’s solution for spherical collapse and its cylindrical analogue. This model explains the ubiquity of jet formation in aspherical collapse, and predicts the shape and velocity profile of the resulting jet. These predictions may be tested in the laboratory or by numerical calculation. An application to solid spall is suggested.

Applying the Jet Feedback Mechanism to Core-collapse Supernova Explosions
I examine a mechanism by which two fast narrow jets launched by a newly formed neutron star (NS), or a black hole (BH), at the center of a core collapse supernovae (CCSN), form two slow massive wide (SMW) jets. Such SMW jets are assumed as initial conditions in some numerical simulations that demonstrate that SMW jets can expel the rest of the collapsing star. The original fast narrow jets must...
متن کاملNanostructured Materials Synthesis Using Ultrasound.
Recent applications of ultrasound to the production of nanostructured materials are reviewed. Sonochemistry permits the production of novel materials or provides a route to known materials without the need for high bulk temperatures, pressures, or long reaction times. Both chemical and physical phenomena associated with high-intensity ultrasound are responsible for the production or modificatio...
متن کاملCavitation bubble dynamics inside liquid drops in microgravity.
We studied spark-generated cavitation bubbles inside water drops produced in microgravity. High-speed visualizations disclosed unique effects of the spherical and nearly isolated liquid volume. In particular, (1) toroidally collapsing bubbles generate two liquid jets escaping from the drop, and the "splash jet" discloses a remarkable broadening. (2) Shock waves induce a strong form of secondary...
متن کاملTissue Dissection with Ultrafast Laser using Extended and Multiple Foci
Ultrashort lasers are typically utilized for tissue dissection by sequential application of tightly focused beam along a scanning pattern. Each pulse creates a small (on the order of 1μm) zone of multiphoton ionization (optical breakdown). At energies exceeding vaporization threshold cavitation bubble is formed around the focal volume. A continuous cut is formed if the rupture zones produced by...
متن کاملSpectrum of Luminescence from Laser-induced Bubbles in Water and Cryogenic Liquids
The spectrum of the luminescence pulse from collapsing laser-induced bubbles in water and cryogenic liquids has been measured. For small bubbles in water the spectrum approximates that of a black-body at about 7800 K, while for bubbles whose maximum radius is greater than 1 mm the OH* molecular band at 310 nm becomes apparent, a feature which is also seen in multi-bubble sonoluminescence. The l...
