they are called compressions
The bunched up areas of particles in a longitudinal wave are called compressions. These regions have high density of particles due to the waves' alternating compressions and rarefactions as they pass through a medium.
The stretched out parts in longitudinal waves are called rarefactions. These are regions where the particles of the medium are spread out, creating a lower pressure area compared to the surrounding compressed regions known as compressions.
the distance between two corresponding parts of a wave is a waves
Those are called longitudinal waves. In longitudinal waves, the particles of the medium oscillate parallel to the direction of wave propagation. Sound waves in air are a common example of longitudinal waves.
In longitudinal waves in a spring, the parts where the particles are closest together are called compressions, while the parts where the particles are farthest apart are called rarefactions. These alternating compressions and rarefactions create the wave motion that travels through the medium.

There are no waves that are specifically called "volcanic waves"; however, a volcanic eruption can of course cause seismic waves. These can be longitudinal or transverse.
P-waves are longitudinal and S-waves are transverse waves.
Yes, there is another name for longitudinal waves which is 'Elastic Waves'. These waves have the same direction of vibration, as their direction of travel. These waves consist of Compressions and Rarefractions. Mechanically they are also called as Compression waves.

If the particles of the medium vibrate in the direction of propagation of wave, as in sound waves that's why sound waves are called longitudinal waves.
