We combine the self-assembly properties of amphiphilic molecules with the radiolysis method to produce specific sizes and shapes of metallic nano-objects. Radiolysis is used to synthesize core--shell structures consisting of nanometric linoleate spherical micelles as the core and silver as the shell. The validity of t…

The line emissions of OH*, Na, Na-Ar*, and Ar are observed in stable and bright single bubble sonoluminescence (SBSL), which shows that the composition of the bubble consists of at least three parts: the vapor, droplets of the host liquid, and the gas dissolved in the host liquid. The observation of line emissions in…
