Abstract

Chemical oscillations are shown to be responsible for very low frequency modulations of a bubble oscillating nonlinearly in a high intensity ultrasound field. In the parameter space of incomplete dissociation near the onset of sonoluminescence a small bubble is shown to grow on a long time scale by the intake of dissolved air. Bubble collapses get hotter and more dense, noninert gases are dissociated and removed, and a small growing argon bubble is left behind continuing the circle.
