An illumination unit including a discharge lamp is provided. The discharge lamp may have an electrode, and a reflector with a reflective surface and an optical axis, the electrode having in a sectional plane, which includes the optical axis, a sectional area, and a projection of the reflective surface of one of the halves of the reflector that are separated by the section perpendicularly into the sectional plane along optical paths that are free for the light of the illumination unit resulting in a projected area, wherein the overlap of the projected area and the sectional area is smaller than the area of the electrode in a plane which is perpendicular to the sectional plane and includes the optical axis.
