Specialty Definition: HOHLRAUM

DomainDefinition
AerospaceIn radiation thermodynamics, a cavity whose walls are in radiative equilibrium with the radiant energy within the cavity. This idealized cavity can be approximated in practice by making a small perforation in the walls of a hollow container of any opaque material. The radiation escaping through such a perforation will be a good approximation to black-body radiation at the temperature of the interior of the container. (references)
PhysicsA hollow chamber surrounding a fusion fuel capsule that converts directed energy from either laser light or particle beams into X-ray radiation. The use of X-ray indirect radiation rather than laser light direct radiation provides additional options for compressing and heating the fusion fuel capsule (target) under the required conditions of Inertial Confinement Fusion.
