Search within a search in SOLR

Is it possible to search within a previous hit list in SOLR? E.g. first search "hello", then on the result list, user wants to search records containing "world". Is it the same thing as searching hello AND world?

Using filter query is a good solution. Only difference is in scoring documents, whatever is used in filter query is not used in scoring.

In

?q=hello&fq=world

only hello is scored.

However in

?q=hello+AND+world

both words are scored

I believe so.

Alternately, you can use a filter query, e.g. ?q=hello&fq=world

This probably isn't the right solution in the "Hello world" case, but it may be an interesting example nonetheless.
