Sonoluminescence is the transformation of sound into light. To most who know how to do sonoluminescence, it’s just a little glowing bubble levitating in a flask of water. But it holds some surprises. This book looks to reform our scientific understanding of sonoluminescence and explore the practical applications as an energy source.
