Modelling of bubble nucleation in trachy-phonolitic magmas: implications for the dynamics of ash-rich eruptions [PDF]
Nucleation of water gas bubbles in trachyphonolitic magmatic melts has been investigated integrating theory and numerical modelling with decompression experiments and analysis of natural ash samples of explosive eruptions.

Mineral Cloud Formation above Magma Oceans in Sub-Neptune Atmospheres
The potential presence of a magma surface below a thick atmosphere primarily composed of hydrogen in some sub-Neptune exoplanets suggests a strong link between the interior composition and atmosphere through chemical coupling of volatile and refractory ...

In volcanic arcs, magma evolves from basaltic to intermediate and felsic composition, resulting in arc crust maturation. It remains unclear whether processes involving mush during magmatic flare‐ups would enhance this evolution.

Recent eruptive history and magma reservoir dynamics on the southern East Pacific Rise at 17°30′S
Submersible‐based geologic observations and geochemical, magnetic paleointensity, and (210Pb/226Ra) radioactive disequilibria data indicate that at least five distinct lava sequences (three normal mid‐ocean ridge basalt (N‐MORB) and two transitional mid ...

Coreless Terrestrial Exoplanets
Differentiation in terrestrial planets is expected to include the formation of a metallic iron core. We predict the existence of terrestrial planets that have differentiated but have no metallic core--planets that are effectively a giant silicate mantle.

Tertiary-Quaternary subduction processes and related magmatism in the Alpine-Mediterranean region [PDF]
During Tertiary to Quaternary times, convergence between Eurasia and Africa resulted in a variety of collisional orogens and different styles of subduction in the Alpine-Mediterranean region.

Open‐conduit conditions characterize several of the most hazardous and active volcanic systems of basaltic composition worldwide, persistently refilled by magmatic inputs. Eruptive products with similar bulk compositions, chemically buffered by continual

Numerical simulations of the mingling caused by a magma intruding a resident mush
Currently, our ability to interpret the mechanics of magma mingling and mixing is limited by an incomplete understanding of the modes of mixing across all melt fractions and compositions.

Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

Sulfur‐Bearing hcp Iron for Earth's Inner Core
Abstract Earth's iron core is believed to contain light impurities which should have been included during core formation. In order to place constraints on core composition, here we report the effect of sulfur on density of hexagonal close‐packed (hcp) iron which was not previously examined, using laser‐heated diamond anvil cells with in situ ...
