On the Formation of Narrow Bubble Tracks by a Laser Beam in Argon, Nitrogen and Hydrogen Bubble Chambers
نویسندگان
چکیده
Long bubble tracks, <1 mm in diameter, have been produced in liquid argon and nitrogen with a nitrogen laser beam (h = 337 nm), offering subnanosecond pulses with small beam divergence. Bubble formation was observed over a wide range of operating conditions, including those for ordinary bubble chamber operation, with a laser pulse of 10 #J. Typical bubble densities obtained were 4-8 bubbles/cm, with maximum densities of 20 bubbles/cm. In liquid hydrogen, tracks of 3 m visible length were observed with track diameters from 1.5 to 6 mm and bubble densities from 2 to 25 bubbles/cm. Results and applications will be discussed.

A method for bubble volume measurement under constant flow conditions in gas–liquid two-phase flow
Measuring the volume of a bubble, especially at its detachment, is a basic subject in gas-liquid two-phase flow research. A new indirect method for this measurement under constant flow conditions is presented. An electronic device is designed and constructed based on laser beam intensity. This device calculates the frequency of the bubble formation by measuring the total time of the formation p...
متن کاملA method for detecting bubbles in two-phase gas-liquid flow
Detecting bubble in two-phase flow has been a basic issue in two-phase flow systems. A new method for measuring the frequency of bubble formation is presented in this paper. For this purpose, an electronic device was designed and constructed which works based on a change in intensity of laser beam. For this purpose, continues light beam is embedded just above the needle, which is received by a ...
متن کاملAnalysis of Pseudo-Turbulence Flow Induced by Bubble Periodic Formation in Non-Newtonian Fluids
Laser Doppler Velocimetry (LDV) has been employed to determine pseudo-turbulence characteristics of the flow field around bubble train forming in non-Newtonian caboxymethylcellulose (CMC) aqueous solution at low gas flow rate condition. The Reynolds stress and turbulent intensity of the liquid were investigated by means of Reynolds time-averaged method. The experimental results show that ax...
متن کاملBubble formation on a single orifice in a gas solid fluidized bed using digital image analysis
Digital Image Analysis (DIA) has been employed to characterize the time evolution of a bubble injected from a single orifice into a pseudo 2-dimansional gas-solid fluidized bed. The injected bubble diameter increased with the square root of time before detachment. During bubble free flight in the bed, its diameter remains approximately constant. The center of mass of the bubble increases with t...
متن کاملDynamics of cavitation bubble induced by 193 nm ArF excimer laser in concentrated sodium chloride solutions
Cavitation bubbles were generated by the 193 nm argon fluoride excimer laser delivered with a specially designed tip into absorbing NaCl solution. The dynamics of bubble formation and collapse have been studied using fast flash photomicrography. The bubble dimensions were measured at different time delays as a function of the tip exit diameter, the energy fluence of the laser, and the NaCl conc...
