Abstract
A summary of experimental findings on the luminescence from bubble collapse, CBL, varying the gas inert bubble content, the driving pressure and perturbing the liquid piston with small quantities of sulfuric acid is presented. The temporal, spectral, and spatial characteristics of the luminescence regarding with dynamic features of collapse are also examinees. CBL was reproduced using Argon gas, and 1, 2-propanediol as liquid piston. In general, the pulse shape exhibits a large variety of profiles. The luminescence intensity was increased two-fold and the pulse width decreased almost to half when the liquid was disturbed with sulfuric acid. Spectrally, the Swan, CH and CN lines were observed at low volume of Ar gas and low driving pressure, lines of OH°, Na*, K* always appear superimposed on an underlying continuum background. De-excitation of sodium atom at 589 nm and two satellites diffuse bands at ~554 nm and ~620 nm from alkali -metal-argon exciplexes was observed in both systems under certain conditions. All these findings point towards several sources of light emission that are generated during the compression time line, resulting in temporally and spatially inhomogeneous pulse. A mechanism for explain the bright CBL is broached.
