ABSTRACT:
A gas discharge lamp according to the invention has an at least approximately rectilinear and contracted arc and a high efficiency even in a horizontal operating position. Consequently, the lamp is suitable for use, when arranged in a reflector, as a vehicle headlight lamp. The lamp comprises an ionizable filling of rare gas, mercury, and metal iodide, the quantity of mercury being dependent upon the inner diameter D of the lamp envelope (1), the distance d between the tips of the electrodes (2), and the distance l over which the electrodes project into the lamp envelope. The values of D, d, l and the wall thickness t of the lamp envelope lie within indicated limits. The lamp, which may be provided with a screen, may have a lamp cap or may be incorporated into a reflector with a front pane.
