ABSTRACT:
To prevent bowing of the arc of a high-pressure discharge lamp operated horizontally, the lamp is supplied with alternating current of between 10 kHz and 100 kHz, in which the frequency and wave shape of the alternating current portions of the supply are so selected that standing radial acoustic resonances will be formed within the discharge medium or fill in the discharge vessel, which standing radially directed acoustic resonances suppress or counteract bending of the discharge arc due to convection phenomena.
