Abstract
A gas discharge lamp (1) with a discharge vessel (2), a first electrode (3) projecting into the discharge vessel (2), and a second electrode (4) projecting into the discharge vessel (2) is described. The first electrode (3) is connected to an electrically conductive first conductor surface (5) surrounding the discharge vessel (2). The second electrode (4) is connected to an electrically conductive second conductor surface (6) surrounding the discharge vessel (2) and arranged such that it overlaps the first conductor surface (5) so as to form a capacitance (C).

A gas discharge lamp (1) with
- a discharge vessel (2),
- a first electrode (3) projecting into the discharge vessel (2),
- a second electrode (4) projecting into the discharge vessel (2),
- an electrically conductive first conductor surface (5) connected to the first electrode (3) and at least partly surrounding the discharge vessel (2), and
- an electrically conductive second conductor surface (6) connected to the second electrode (4) and at least partly surrounding the discharge vessel (2), which second conductor surface is arranged so as to overlap the first conductor surface (5) at least partly, thus forming a capacitance (C).
