Experimental characterisation of light emission during shock-driven cavity collapse
The authors describe experimental work examining the collapse of a cavity by a strong shockwave. A millimetre size cavity is cast in Phytagel, which is then impacted by a metallic projectile accelerated by a compressed gas gun, reaching velocities up to 500 m/s. The impact generates a strong shockwa...
