Bubbles in liquids, soft and squeezy objects made of gas and vapour, yet so strong as to destroy any material. At first glance bubbles in water might seem like trivial objects with simple physics describing them. However, upon further investigation one finds many interesting phenomena. In this talk I will present Rayleigh–Plesset equation, a mathematical framework for describing bubble oscillations, as well as an overview of some notable solutions.
