Abstract

A high-gain image intensifier system has been applied to the study of the light emitted when cavitation occurs in a liquid (sonoluminescence). Observations of sonoluminescence from several different magnetostrictive oscillators show that spatial and temporal distributions can be recorded in a few seconds in cases where recording on conventional film would not be possible. In the present experiments, the spectral transmission properties of the optics precluded recording of the light in ultraviolet. The spatial details of the cavitation process would not be available from photomultiplier records.
