and explodes if the pressure becomes more negative than− 1.9 bars. In this paper, we use
focused ultrasound to explode electron bubbles. We then image at 30,000 frames per
second the growth and subsequent collapse of the bubbles. We find that bubbles can grow
to as large as 1 mm in diameter within 2 ms after the cavitation event. We examine the
relation between the maximum size of the bubble and the lifetime and find good agreement …
