Laser induced single bubble under water surface generates the cumulative jet with the velocity of about 10 m/s. Images of the bubble dynamics are taken with a high-speed photography at 62.500 frames/sec (16 mksec per image). The maximum radius of the bubble determined through Rayleigh's formula is 3.8 mm. Toroidal collapse of the bubble is visible on the last row. (V.S.Teslenko. Journal of Applied Mechanics and Technical Physics. 1976, N4.)
