ABSTRACT:
Luminaire provided with a bowl-shaped reflector for an elongated light-emitting part of a light source to be arranged substantially on the principal axis of said reflector. The reflector has a reflecting surface composed of elongated facets whose longitudinal sides extend from adjacent the center to the peripheral edge of the reflector. The facets are concavely curved in a cross-section comprising the principal axis and are straight in a plane at right angles to the peripheral axis and constitute a regular polygon, the axis of symmetry of a facet extending in accordance with a curve approaching the shape of a parabola.
