Abstract

Reflector for source of radiation, of the plane or cylindrical type, constituted by two reflector elements disposed symmetrically with respect to a plane containing the longitudinal axis of the reflector, each reflector element is constituted by at least one cylindrical part of which the generatrices are parallel to the longitudinal axis of the reflector, the cross-section of this cylindrical part being constituted by a curve such that the rays reflected by the respective ends of this curve constitute two end rays forming respective angles with the plane of symmetry, all the rays reflected on the reflector element being included between the respective angles.
