An apparatus for use in a wellbore comprises a heat insulating container having an inner space and having a structure defining a hollow containing a vacuum. The apparatus further comprises a reflective layer arranged on a surface of the heat insulating container to reflect heat for reducing radiated heat originated in the wellbore from reaching the inner space. Also, a signal-activated detonator is provided in the inner space of the heat insulating container.

What is claimed is: 1. An apparatus for use in a wellbore, comprising: a heat insulating container having an inner space and having a structure defining a hollow containing a vacuum; a first reflective layer arranged on a surface of the heat insulating container to reflect heat for reducing heat radiation from the wellbore into the inner space; a signal-activated detonator provided in the inner space of the heat insulating container; and a filler mass inside the inner space to separate the detonator from an inner surface of the heat insulating container to protect the detonator from direct impact between the detonator and the heat insulating container, wherein the filler mass is formed of a heat insulating material. 2. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the structure defining the hollow comprises one or more walls of the heat insulating container that defines the hollow. 3. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the first reflective layer is arranged on an outer surface of the heat insulating container to reflect heat produced in the wellbore. 4. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the detonator includes one of an exploding foil initiator, an exploding bridgewire initiator, a hot-wire detonator, and a semiconductor bridge detonator. 5. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the heat insulating material of the filler mass comprises fiberglass. 6. An apparatus for use in a wellbore, comprising: a heat insulating container having an inner space and having a structure defining a hollow containing a vacuum; a first reflective layer arranged on a surface of the heat insulating container to reflect heat for reducing heat radiation from the wellbore into the inner space; a signal-activated detonator provided in the inner space of the heat insulating container; wherein the heat insulating container includes an opening through which the detonator is insertable into the heat insulating container; and a plug to fit into the opening, the plug including a hollow that has a vacuum. 7. The apparatus of claim 6, wherein the first reflective layer is coated to the surface of the heat insulating container. 8. The apparatus of claim 6, wherein the heat insulating container comprises a thermal flask providing the inner space. 9. The apparatus of claim 8, wherein the thermal flask comprises a Dewar flask. 10. The apparatus of claim 8, wherein the heat insulating container further comprises a protective outer shell, the thermal flask provided inside the protective outer shell. 11. The apparatus of claim 10, wherein the outer shell is formed of a metal, and the thermal flask is formed of glass. 12. The apparatus of claim 10, further comprising a filler layer between the outer shell and the thermal flask. 13. The apparatus of claim 6, wherein the plug has at least one through-bore, the apparatus further comprising a detonating cord connected to the detonator and extending through the at least one through-bore of the plug. 14. The apparatus of claim 6, wherein the detonator is responsive to one of an electrical stimulus, fiber optic signaling, and pressure pulse signaling. 15. The apparatus of claim 6, wherein the detonator comprises a miniaturized detonator. 16. The apparatus of claim 6, wherein the plug is removably insertable in the opening of the heat insulating container. 17. The apparatus of claim 6, wherein the hollow of the plug is separate from the hollow of the structure. 18. A system comprising: an explosive; a heat insulating container having an inner space and having a structure defining a vacuum layer to reduce heat convection and conduction from a surrounding wellbore; a reflective layer arranged on a surface of the heat insulating container to reflect heat for reducing heat radiation from the surrounding wellbore into the inner space; a signal-activated detonator provided in the inner space of the heat insulating container, the detonator for detonating the explosive, wherein the heat insulating container includes an opening through which the detonator is insertable into the heat insulating container; and a plug to fit into the opening, the plug including a hollow that has a vacuum. 19. The system of claim 18, further comprising a perforating gun, the explosive being part of the perforating gun. 20. The system of claim 18, further comprising a detonating cord ballistically connecting the detonator to the explosive. 21. The system of claim 18, wherein the plug is removably insertable in the opening of the heat insulating container. 22. The system of claim 18, wherein the hollow of the ph g is separate from the hollow of the structure.
