A discharge lamp in which the distance between the electrodes is small (of the order 1 to 10mm).


Note: This type of lamp (mercury or xenon for example) is generally of a high or extra high pressure.

Short-arc lamps are also called Compact-Source Arc Discharge Lamps and are particularly suitable as a light source in optical apparatus for the production of narrow beams.
