X-ray computed tomography (CT) can reveal the internal details of objects in three
dimensions non-destructively. In this Primer, we outline the basic principles of CT and …

When considering the rheology of a suspension the fundamental physical aspect to be
quantified is the redistribution of strain between the deformable matrix fraction of the …

MicroComputed Tomography has become the gold standard for studying 3D microscopic
structures nondestructively, and this book provides up-to-date coverage of the modality. The …

Synchrotron-based X-ray micro-tomography systems often suffer severe ring artifacts in
reconstructed images. In sinograms the artifacts appear as straight lines or stripe artifacts …

The majority of basaltic magmas stall in the Earth's crust as a result of the rheological
evolution caused by crystallization during transport. However, the relationships between …

Basaltic eruptions are the most common form of volcanism on Earth and planetary bodies.
The low viscosity of basaltic magmas inhibits fragmentation, which favours effusive and lava …

In this work, an ultrasound computed tomography (USCT) system was employed to
investigate the fast-kinetic reactive crystallization process of calcium carbonate. USCT …

Although gas exsolution is a major driving force behind explosive volcanic eruptions,
viscosity is critical in controlling the escape of bubbles and switching between explosive and …

Transitions in eruptive style during volcanic eruptions strongly depend on how easily gas
and magma decouple during ascent. Stronger gas-melt coupling favors highly explosive …

Traditionally depicted as homogeneous materials, manmade and volcanic glasses are often
subjected to nanostructuration during demixing and crystallization of their parental melt …
