Magmons: Solitary Waves Arising in the Buoyant Ascent of Magma by Porous Flow through a Viscously Deformable Matrix
<p>The dynamics of partially molten regions of the Earth's mantle are studied using a combination of theoretical, experimental, and numerical techniques. The physical model is based on experimental observations of partially molten ultramafic rocks and incorporates two elements: buoyancy-d...
