“…It is well known that a charged particle passing through a bubble chamber produces a track of bubbles. The underlying physics of this process in helium (and hydrogen) bubble chambers operating at low temperatures [25] active 204 Tl source that passed the miniature helium bubble chamber in which negative pressures were produced using a focused ultrasonic wave. An electron in liquid helium experiences a repulsive potential of about 1 eV and it is thus energetically favorable to create a spherical cavity.…”

Cavitation in normal and superfluid liquid 4 He at saturated vapor pressure and slightly elevated pressures has been experimentally studied in a flow due to quartz forks vibrating at high amplitudes. Above the temperature-and pressure-dependent critical velocity, heterogeneous cavitation is observed both visually and electrically, as a breakdown of the resonance response of the fork. We compare our results with available experimental and discuss them using existing theoretical models. In particular, we show that thermal effects leading to local overheating of the vicinity of the fork have to be taken into account, especially in normal liquid 4 He.PACS: 47.55.dp Drop and bubble formation.
