| Research Abstract |
We performed the study of structure and physical properties of magma by means of experimental methods and theoretical/computational methods.
EXPERIMENTAL : The X-ray shadowgraph method to measure the viscosity of magma at high pressure has been improved, and the viscosity of jadeite melt was measured at high pressure. High pressure experiments showed that water at mantle condition dissolves large amount of oxide components and it is similar to hydrous magma.
We have directly measured heats of fusion of some rocks and mixing properties of olivine solid solution by high temperature calorimetry. Systematic data of element partitioning between silicate melts and coexisting minerals have been obtained at high pressure. Thermodynamic properties of silicate glasses quenched at high pressure show increase of the enthalpies correlated with high coordinated silicon. High temperature infrared microspectroscopy has been developed, and dehydration behaviors of magmas was investigated. Reaction rates and activation energies were determined for natural rhyolitic glasses, and gave reasonable diffusion coefficients and we evaluate a typical time scale of volcanic degassing.
THEORETICAL/COMPUTATIONAL : Molecular orbital calculations were performed to understand the chemical bonds in magma. We have developed a transferable potential model applicable to both crystals and liquids in the systems Na2o-CaO-MgO-Al2O3-SiO2 and Na2O-SiO2-H2O,and have successfully used the molecular dynamics simulations with the transferable model to predict the structural and thermodynamic properties of a wide variety of crystals and liquids in the systems.
