Abstract

An error in a recent paper on bubble and drop oscillations by Temkin (J. Fluid Mech. vol. 380 (1999), pp. 1–38) is pointed out and corrected. In this way, his results are shown essentially to reduce to earlier ones in the literature. A concise derivation of these earlier results is presented for the case of a gas bubble.
