The large circular depression at the top of a volcano that forms when the roof of the magma chamber collapses is called a caldera. Calderas can be huge in size and are formed during explosive volcanic eruptions or when the magma chamber empties and the summit collapses into the void left behind.
When a volcano collapses into itself at its top, it forms a large crater called a caldera. Calderas are formed when the magma chamber of a volcano empties during an eruption, causing the summit to collapse inward.
No. They are simply called pyroclastic flows. A caldera is a depression formed in the ground when a volcano, usually a composite volcano, collapses as the magma chamber partially empties during an especially violent eruption.
A crater that becomes very large as a result of the collapse of its walls is called a caldera. Calderas are typically formed after a volcanic eruption when the magma chamber empties and the summit collapses into the void below.
what happens is that it forms a caldera
Its called a "caldera".

caldera
Calderas form during massive explosve volcanic eruptions. In such eruptions so much material is expelled that it leaves a large empty space under the volcano. The volcano then collapses into this space, forming a giant crater.
volcanos
When a volcano collapses on itself a caldera is then formed.
