acoustics - Why is light produced when an underwater bubble is collapsed with a sound wave?


Why is light produced when an underwater bubble is collapsed with a sound wave?


I have come across this fact on a page (similar to this) but can't understand "Why". I'm just curious about this interesting fact. And, I want to know what's the currently accepted model for this phenomenon and how good it holds. Any kind of help regarding this topic will be highly appreciated.
