Reservoir-fed magma intrusion

Let $V_T$ be total magma volume shared between a reservoir and an advancing toughness-controlled magma intrusion, $p_r=E(V_T-V)$, and conduit conductance $\beta >0$. With $A=\sqrt{8\pi /3}B{\kappa }_f^{3/2}$,Equilibria satisfy $\sqrt{V}(V_T-V)=A/E$. Two positive equilibria exist when $A/E<2V_T^{3/2}/(3\sqrt{3})$; the smaller is unstable and the larger is stable under this volume equation. An advancing solution between them approaches the larger. The singular pressure as $V\to 0$ prevents this late-time model from nucleating an intrusion by itself.
