Abstract:
We present tomographic images of the crust and upper mantle of the Mid‐Atlantic Ridge (Rainbow area) made from P wave refraction data Along ridge segments, the crust is cold, brittle, and ~4‐5 km thick and probably forms by repeated injection of small melt bodies Rainbow massif is capped by cool, altered mantle rocks; the interior is hot and relatively unaltered and deforms in the brittle regime
