Cavitation and bubble collapse in hot asymmetric nuclear matter
arXiv:nucl-th/0404054 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevC.70.044321
Abstract
The dynamics of embryonic bubbles in overheated, viscous and non-Markovian nuclear matter is studied. It is shown that the memory and the Fermi surface distortions significantly affect the hinderance of bubble collapse and determine a characteristic oscillations of the bubble radius. These oscillations occur due to the additional elastic force induced by the memory integral.
