• Thermal stress, cooling-rate and fictive temperature of silicate melts 

      Webb, Sharon L.ORCIDiD (Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology, 2021-09-21)
      The unknown cooling-rate history of natural silicate melts can be investigated using differential scanning heat capacity measurements together with the limiting fictive temperature analysis calculation. There are a range ...
    • Vesicle shrinkage in hydrous phonolitic melt during cooling 

      Allabar, A.ORCIDiD; Dobson, K. J.; Bauer, C. C.; Nowak, M. (Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology, 2020-02-12)
      The ascent of hydrous magma prior to volcanic eruptions is largely driven by the formation of H2O vesicles and their subsequent growth upon further decompression. Porosity controls buoyancy as well as vesicle coalescence ...
