a narrow beam of light, especially one of a group going out from the same centre
a beam of heat, electricity, or some other form of energy
a very small bit (of hope or comfort)
"That tower rays a laser beam for miles across the sky"
"spokes radiate from the hub of the wheel"
"This plants radiate spines in all directions"
"irradiate food"
Only one ray of hope broke the gloom of her prospects.
