Abstract

Acoustic measurements of aqueous foams show three distinct radiation mechanisms that contribute to the sound pressure field: oscillations of a bubble surface that precede popping due to the instability of thin liquid film, impulsive radiation due to bursts of bubbles, and oscillations from neighboring bubbles excited by a burst bubble. The movies captured by a fast camera confirm that the bubbles adjacent to a breaking bubble oscillate under the influence of the pressure generated by the burst bubble. The spectra of resulting transient sounds fall in the range of 2-8 kHz and those from bubble oscillations correlate well with the bubble size.
