Radiation acoustics is a developing field lying at the intersection of acoustics, high-energy physics, nuclear physics, and condensed matter physics. Radiation Acoustics is among the first books to address this promising field of study, and the first to collect all of the most significant results achieved since research in this area began in earnest in the 1970s. The book begins by reviewing the data on elementary particles, absorption of penetrating radiation in a substance, and the mechanisms of acoustic radiation excitation. The next seven chapters present a theoretical treatment of thermoradiation sound generation in condensed media under the action of modulated penetrating radiation and...
The subject of the report is the force exerted on a spherical inclusion in a liquid by an acoustic stationary wave. Experimental and theoretical values are presented for the minimum acoustic pressure amplitudes required to trap small, individual droplets of various liquids near a pressure antinode in a stationary sound field in a cylinder filled with water. The liquids used were paraldehyde, hexane, benzene, toluene, chlorobenzene, and carbon tetrachloride. Droplet radii ranged from 400 to 800 micrometers and acoustic pressure amplitudes ranged from 1 to 15 bars. Calculated and observed values are in agreement if the compressibility of the liquid droplets is considered. (Author).
