Imaging the lithosphere is key to understand mechanisms of extension as rifting progresses. Continental rifting results in a combination of mechanical stretching and thinning of the lithosphere, decompression upwelling, heating, sometimes partial melting

Along ultraslow spreading ridges melt is distributed unequally, but melt focusing guides melt away from amagmatic segments toward volcanic centers. An interplay of tectonism and magmatism is thought to control melt ascent, but the detailed process of ...

To assess the effects of sediment addition on the partial melting of subducted oceanic crust and generation of arc silicic magma, a series of comparative partial melting experiments on a garnet plagioamphibolite and a 90 wt% garnet plagioamphibolite + 10

Long‐period magnetotelluric (MT) data can be used to interpret upper mantle temperature, hydrogen content, and the presence of partial melt, all of which strongly influence mantle viscosity. We have collected the first long‐period MT data in Svalbard and

In seismic tomography we map the wave speed structure inside the Earth, but we ultimately seek to interpret those images in terms of physical parameters.

Acoustic and Microstructural Properties of Partially Molten Samples in the Ice–Ammonia System
We measured the ultrasonic properties and microstructure of two-phase binary mixtures of the ice−ammonia partial melt system, which was selected based on its importance for numerous planetary bodies.

Ethylene Homopolymerization by Ziegler-Natta (TiCl4/MgCl2) Catalyst through Full Factorial Experimental Design [PDF]
Full factorial experimental design (23) for the evaluation of slurry ethylene polymerization in the presence of an industrial TiCl4/MgCl2 Ziegler-Natta catalyst was employed.

Fe-Ti oxide minerals can be locally aggregated or enriched in the quartzofeldspathic gneisses from the Larsemann Hills, East Antarctica. The enrichment is related to anatexis and subsequent high-grade metamorphism, not inherited from the protolith.

Partial melting in the deepest mantle [PDF]
We have compared the travel times of direct (P, S) and core‐reflected (PcP, ScS) phases recorded in southern Africa from earthquakes occurring in the Scotia Arc region. The low‐velocity region beneath the south Atlantic is explored by calculating ScS‐S and PcP‐P travel‐time residuals to determine the correlation and magnitude of Vs and Vp reductions in

Regions of partial melt of Fe-S-Si alloys at high pressures may arise during planetary formation or at the boundary of the inner and outer cores of small terrestrial planetary bodies.
