The line in which waves that are moving together are all in the same phase is referred to as the wave front.
For example, in a series of waves, all of the crests that are in a single line make up a single wave front. This is the case for every set of particles at the same specific point in a series of waves.
vacuum walls: prevents heat loss by comduction and radiation
silvered walls prevent loss by radiation
ceramic base prevents loss by conduction
cap prevents by radiation and convection and reduces by comduction
