Boosting Sonoluminescence - Accepted for publication in 1996, this paper describes how a bimodal sound excitation can enhance light production.
Single Bubble Sonoluminescence - Provides detailed instructions on how to produce single and multi bubble sonoluminescence.
Sonoluminescence - By Chris Petersen. Provides history, overview and specifics of his experiment.
Impulse Devices - Developing a Sonofusion power generator which harnesses the energy in sonoluminescence to provide the necessary temperatures for fusion reactions.
Scientific American: Sonoluminescence - Provides explanation of why it is unlikely that sonoluminescence produces the conditions necessary to initiate or facilitate nuclear fusion, as suggested in the movie "Chain Reaction".
Sonoluminescence Experiment: Sound Into Light - W.A. Steer's account of his work to construct apparatus to enable the observation of sonoluminescence, to investigate its basic properties, and leave a kit and instructions to form the basis of a future final-year undergraduate experiment.
