Abstract: The xenon lamp for a projector, the xenon lamp comprises a light-emitting tube and an anode and a cathode that are arranged inside the light-emitting tube so as to face each other through a gap in a first direction, the anode including: a body part and a chip part whose cross-sectional area cut along a first plane orthogonal to the first direction is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the body part, the chip part including: a first part joined to the body part, the first part protruding toward the cathode and having a tapered shape; and a second part joined to the first part, the second part protruding toward the cathode and having a shape such that an angle of inclination of an outer profile of the second part differs from an angle of inclination of an outer profile of the first part.
