Abstract
A metal halide gas discharge lamp for projection purposes includes a discge vessel closed at both ends preferably has between the electrodes a central frosted partial area applied on the outer surface of the discharge vessel. The relationship 0.1<B.ltoreq.1, preferably 0.4<B/d<0.8, applies to the quotients of the width B of the frosted partial area by the inter-electrode gap d. The lamp is optionally provided on one or both sides with heat build-up coatings. The lamp advantageously forms a unit with an optical reflector.
