    Abstract: An assembly is provided for a turbine engine. This turbine engine assembly includes a supplemental thrust section and a duct. The supplemental thrust section includes a rotating detonation combustor. The duct includes a supplemental thrust section inlet fluidly coupled with and leading to the rotating detonation combustor. The supplemental thrust section inlet has a flow area that decreases as at least a first portion of the supplemental thrust section inlet extends towards the rotating detonation combustor.
