Here we found a low velocity body too small to be detected from conventional techniques by the aid of a modern technique called seismic interferometry. Combining our result with independent observations suggests that the low velocity body is likely to represent a magma chamber. Our findings demonstrate the utility of seismic interferometry in imaging a small scale feature with a size of less than 10 km.
