Yes. It's a modified triangle infill pattern.
A solver pairs the triangle with one of its neighbors. Then cuts a window at the bottom during the slice. So plastic gets injected into the top of a triangle tube and flows through the window at the bottom of the U to its neighbor cell.
Download the binaries and try slicing with magma infill type. Turn off visibility of all the other line types and you'll see how it works
