  We discuss the problem of an explosion in the cubic-quintic superfluid model,
in relation to some experimental observations. We show numerically that an
explosion in such a model might induce a cavitation bubble for large enough
energy. This gives a consistent view for rebound bubbles in superfluid and we
indentify the loss of energy between the successive rebounds as radiated waves.
We compute self-similar solution of the explosion for the early stage, when no
bubbles have been nucleated. The solution also gives the wave number of the
excitations emitted through the shock wave.
