Bubble trouble - Letters - Letter to the Editor

Science News,  Feb 8, 2003  by A.J. McPhate

"Deadly Bubble Bath: Ultrasound fizz kills microbes under pressure" (SN: 12/7/02, p. 358) says that in cavitation, "bubbles form when falling pressure permits dissolved gases to pop out of solution." A cavitation-vapor bubble is formed when the pressure drops below the vapor-liquid saturation pressure for the liquid. Dissolved gas bubbles will just give you a fizzy cola.
