We have found an oscillating instability of fast-running cracks in thin
rubber sheets. A well-defined transition from straight to oscillating cracks
occurs as the amount of biaxial strain increases. Measurements of the amplitude
and wavelength of the oscillation near the onset of this instability indicate
that the instability is a Hopf bifurcation.
