Optics

the spreading of a narrow beam into a hollow cone of rays, observed as rings, when light travels along an optic axis of a biaxial crystal.

In optics, conical refraction refers to the spreading of a narrow beam into a hollow cone of rays, observed as rings, when light travels along an optic axis of a biaxial crystal. This meaning comes from Berry (2004) in Journal of Optics A: Pure and Applied Optics.[1]
