Abstract
Dynamics of a cavitation bubble is considered at its strong expansion and sub-sequent compression. The bubble is formed by merging of two identical spherical cavitation microcavities in the pressure antinode of the intensive ultrasonic standing wave in the half-wave phase with negative pressure. Deformations of bubble and deformations of radially converging shock waves occurring therein at bubble compression are studied depending on the size of microcavities forming the bubble. It is found that compression of the medium in the bubble by the converging shock wave is kept close to the spherical one only in the case, when the radius of merging microcavities is 1800 times smaller than the radius of the bubble formed by merging at the time of its maximal expansion.
