Scope and Contents

Contents

High-temperature crystallization domains (HTCDs) including spherulites and lithophysae form during cooling of silica-rich lava and welded ignimbrites. Spherulites grow in silicate melts or hot glass and they display a radiating or microcrystalline texture, typically consisting of cristobalite, tridymite, and sanidine. Lithophysae are HTCDs comprisi...
