Popis: | A pulsed neutron generator (PNG) and a radioactive source have been used to seed cavitation at dynamic pressures ranging up to 35 atm. No fusion signal above background has been observed. Our upper bound is less than 1E−4 of the signal claimed by R. P. Taleyarkhan et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, (2006)]. Reasons for the failure of bubble fusion in acetone and future directions will be discussed. [Research funded by DARPA. We thank Brian Kappus for valuable discussions.] |
