When the high pressure front at the crest of the sound wave slams into these bubbles, they implode, and shock waves focus the energy of the implosion to a central region of atomic dimensions. The temperature at that central point skyrockets above 10,000 degrees Celsius, the pressure zooms to 10,000 atmospheres and a flash of light emerges for just a few picoseconds."I would be suspicious of these readings of temperatures and pressures of this magnitude. I would never have thought that ultrasonic cavitation would amplify pressures this much. Still.........
