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 that have been overlooked. This book looks to reform our scientific understanding of sonoluminescence and explore the practical applications as an energy source.
