Abstract
⺠Viscosities of shoshonitic and latitic melts relevant to the Campi Flegrei caldera magmas have been measured. ⺠Micropenetration, concentric cylinder and falling sphere were adopted to determine viscosity of dry and hydrous melts. ⺠The combination of experimental data allowed us create a general model of viscosity using the modified VFT equation. ⺠The proposed model has been applied to Campi Flegrei products.âºViscosity data have been used to constrain the ascent velocity of melts within dikes.
