Hohlraum

In radiation thermodynamics, a hohlraum is a cavity whose walls are in radiative equilibrium with the radiant energy within the cavity. First proposed by Gustav Kirchhoff in 1860 and used in the study of black-body radiation (hohlraumstrahlung), this idealized cavity can be approximated in practice by a hollow container of any opaque material. The radiation escaping through a small perforation in the wall of such a container will be a good approximation of black-body radiation at the temperature of the interior of the container. Indeed, a hohlraum can even be constructed from cardboard, as shown by Purcell's Black Body Box, a hohlraum demonstrator.
