Abstract
Recent work has developed a beautiful model system for studying the energy focusing and heating power of collapsing bubbles. The bubble is effectively one-dimensional and the collapse and heating can be quantitatively measured. Thermal effects are shown to play an essential role in the time-dependent dynamics.
