  2. MagmaFS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MagmaFS

    Magma is a distributed file system based on a distributed hash table, written in C, compatible with Linux and BSD kernels using FUSE. Terminology and basic principles [ edit ] Magma binds several hosts interconnected by a TCP/IP network to form a common storage space called a lava ring .

  3. Magma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magma

    Magma (sometimes colloquially but incorrectly referred to as lava by laypeople) is found beneath the surface of the Earth, and evidence of magmatism has also been discovered on other terrestrial planets and some natural satellites. [3] Besides molten rock, magma may also contain suspended crystals and gas bubbles.

  4. Volcanic and igneous plumbing systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volcanic_and_igneous...

    Magma emplacement is primarily controlled by the internal forces of magma including buoyancy and magma pressure. Magma pressure changes with depth as vertical stress is a function of the depth. [20] Another parameter of magma emplacement is the rate of magma supply. [2]

  5. Magma (algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magma_(algebra)

    A magma is a set M matched with an operation • that sends any two elements a, b ∈ M to another element, a • b ∈ M. The symbol • is a general placeholder for a properly defined operation. To qualify as a magma, the set and operation (M, •) must satisfy the following requirement (known as the magma or closure axiom ):

  6. Tholeiitic magma series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tholeiitic_Magma_Series

    A magma series is a chemically distinct range of magma compositions that describes the evolution of a mafic magma into a more evolved, silica rich end member. Rock types of the tholeiitic magma series include tholeiitic basalt, ferro-basalt, tholeiitic basaltic andesite, tholeiitic andesite, dacite and rhyolite.

  7. Magma supply rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magma_supply_rate

    The magma supply rate is used to infer the behaviour of volcanic systems which erupt periodically, as well as to describe the growth of the continental crust and of deep-seated magmatic bodies such as plutons.

  8. Magmatic water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magmatic_water

    Magmatic water, also known as juvenile water, is an aqueous phase in equilibrium with minerals that have been dissolved by magma deep within the Earth's crust and is released to the atmosphere during a volcanic eruption.

  9. Magma chamber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magma_chamber

    11 – magma chamber. A magma chamber is a large pool of liquid rock beneath the surface of the Earth. The molten rock, or magma, in such a chamber is less dense than the surrounding country rock, which produces buoyant forces on the magma that tend to drive it upwards.

  10. Volcanic crater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volcanic_crater

    Volcanic crater. A volcanic crater is an approximately circular depression in the ground caused by volcanic activity. [1] It is typically a bowl-shaped feature containing one or more vents. During volcanic eruptions, molten magma and volcanic gases rise from an underground magma chamber, through a conduit, until they reach the crater's vent ...

  11. Crystal mush - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_mush

    A crystal mush is magma that contains a significant amount of crystals (up to 50% of the volume) suspended in the liquid phase (melt). [1] As the crystal fraction makes up less than half of the volume, there is no rigid large-scale three-dimensional network as in solids. [2] As such, their rheological behavior mirrors that of absolute liquids ...
