Sonoluminescence = transient acoustic horizon with phonon blue-shift
Purpose
Model an imploding bubble as a transient sonic horizon and compute the emitted thermal spectrum from phonon Hawking radiation.
What it proves
The model gives a flash temperature K with nm, matching the observed sonoluminescence UV band without any plasma-chemistry assumption.
Relation to current theory
Mainstream explanations (Bremsstrahlung, shock heating) fit the curve post-hoc with multiple tunables. SVT derives the spectrum from the same analogue-gravity mechanism as sim_03.
