Oscillations, Waves, and Interactions - GWDG

The single bubble – a hot microlaboratory 169
as the elementary particles in problems of bubble cloud dynamics and structure formation.
Single bubble studies as presented here have clarified many basic properties
of these objects, and will do so in the future. Still, a lot remains to be learned about
single bubbles, in particular, at the nano-scale.

Dynamics and Cavitation group at the Dritte Physikalische Institut (DPI) for uncountable
input to the work described here, in particular, R. Mettin and U. Parlitz for steady support
and scientific exchange, and P. Koch, O. Lindau, C. D. Ohl, and A. Phillipp who contributed
to this work. Thanks also go to the wonderful DPI as a whole forming the basis and home
where results like those reported here easily could grow.
