ABSTRACT:
An indirect luminaire optical system having linear tubular lamps, parabolic reflector assemblies positioned under the lamps, kick reflectors positioned adjacent to the sides of the lamps, and a housing positioned around the lamps and reflectors, with the housing having a substantially open top for allowing light to exit the optical system. Each parabolic reflector assembly may have a pair of substantially parabolic shaped reflectors joined to form a apex along and directly under the corresponding lamp lamp. The kick reflectors may be in a spaced relationship with the parabolic reflector assemblies, thereby defining openings therebetween. The bottom portion of the housing may have translucent areas which are in optical communication with the lamp through the openings.
