<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a short-arc type discharge lamp having a cathode and an anode arranged as opposing each other in an arc tube, which has a structure of electrodes that prevents blackening of a lamp due to evaporation of an electrode material, with the center of the tip of the anode not projecting beyond a surrounding circular portion, in particular, during full/standby lighting in which normal lighting at a rated electric power and standby lighting at a low electric power are repeated. <P>SOLUTION: An insertion body is inserted in an opening at the center of the tip of an anode. A groove or a recess is formed on at least either one of the inner surface of the opening or the outer surface of the insertion body. As the insertion body is joined in the opening of the anode, a void is formed in the anode. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
