Abstract

IntroductionHave you ever heard of sonoluminescence?It is the phenomenon where a gas bubble in a liquid, when excited by sound waves, collapses(implodes) and emits an extremely brief but very bright flash of light.In 1989, Felipe Gaitan and Lawrence Crum greatly improved the experimental setup and technique, achieving single-bubble sonoluminescence (SBSL). In SBSL, a single bubble trapped in a standing acoustic wave periodically expands and collapses, continuously emitting light pulses.I noticed that this effect matches very closely with the vacuum energy extraction mechanism in my Elastic Membrane Cosmology (EMC) theory, so the same mechanism should also apply to gas giants and gamma-ray bursts (GRBs).
