  2. Calc-alkaline magma series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calc-alkaline_magma_series

    The calc-alkaline magma series is one of two main subdivisions of the subalkaline magma series, the other subalkaline magma series being the tholeiitic series. A magma series is a series of compositions that describes the evolution of a mafic magma, which is high in magnesium and iron and produces basalt or gabbro, as it fractionally crystallizes to become a felsic magma, which is low in ...

  3. GOST (block cipher) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GOST_(block_cipher)

    GOST has a 64-bit block size and a key length of 256 bits. Its S-boxes can be secret, and they contain about 354 (log 2 (16! 8)) bits of secret information, so the effective key size can be increased to 610 bits; however, a chosen-key attack can recover the contents of the S-boxes in approximately 2 32 encryptions.

  4. Igneous differentiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Igneous_differentiation

    Magma mixing is the process by which two magmas meet, comingle, and form a magma of a composition somewhere between the two end-member magmas. Magma mixing is a common process in volcanic magma chambers, which are open-system chambers where magmas enter the chamber, [ 10 ] undergo some form of assimilation, fractional crystallisation and ...

  5. Alkaline magma series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkaline_magma_series

    Alkaline magmas tend to show high titanium oxide (TiO 2) content, typically in excess of 3% by weight. Other incompatible elements, such as phosphorus and light rare earth elements, are also elevated. This is attributed to a very low degree of partial melting of the source rock, with only 5% or less of the source rock going into the magma melt. [3]

  6. Tholeiitic magma series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tholeiitic_Magma_Series

    The tholeiitic magma series (/ ˌ θ oʊ l eɪ ˈ ɪ t ɪ k /) is one of two main magma series in subalkaline igneous rocks, the other being the calc-alkaline series. A magma series is a chemically distinct range of magma compositions that describes the evolution of a mafic magma into a more evolved, silica rich end member.

  7. Phreatomagmatic eruption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phreatomagmatic_eruption

    A further control on the morphology and characteristics of a deposit is the water to magma ratio. It is considered that the products of phreatomagmatic eruptions are fine grained and poorly sorted where the magma/water ratio is high, but when there is a lower magma/water ratio the deposits may be coarser and better sorted. [4]

  8. Magma chamber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magma_chamber

    The molten rock, or magma, in such a chamber is less dense than the surrounding country rock, which produces buoyant forces on the magma that tend to drive it upwards. [1] If the magma finds a path to the surface, then the result will be a volcanic eruption; consequently, many volcanoes are situated over magma chambers. [2]

  9. Magma Design Automation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magma_Design_Automation

    Magma was founded in 1997 by a team including Rajeev Madhavan, who was chairman, CEO and president from the company's inception. [2] The company initially competed primarily with Cadence and Avanti Corporation in physical design but eventually broadened its product portfolio and competed with all three of the largest established EDA companies: Cadence, Mentor Graphics and Synopsys.
