Contribution

It introduces new experimental findings on nuclear transformations in water caused by acoustic oscillations, a phenomenon not explained by chemical reactions before.

Findings

Detection of radiation emission during acoustic impacts

Alteration of stable isotope concentrations in water

Metal surface erosion explained by fluorine formation

Abstract

The results of studies on the properties of ordinary and heavy water subjected to sharp mechanical impacts at acoustic repetition frequency are presented. Experimental evidence for the phenomenon of acoustically induced nuclear processes in water is provided, supported by direct measurements of radiation emission and the formation of new elements, which cannot be explained by chemical reactions. The complex influence of mechanical oscillations on changes in the concentrations of stable isotopes of elements such as Ti, B, Na, Mg, and Li in water is demonstrated. The cause of surface erosion of metal structures during cavitation in water is explained through the formation of fluorine and the subsequent creation of aggressive HF acid molecules. A mechanism for the occurrence of sonoluminescence under sharp acoustic impact on water is proposed.
