Abstract
The invention relates to a mirror for changing the geometrical form of a light beam. The mirror includes several mirroring regions with these regions being strip-like segments. An incoming light beam impinges on several of these segments which are all so aligned that the reflected component beams from all segments are imaged on one and the same component area of an axis. The mirror can be configured as one piece which imparts a linear beam geometry with only one reflection.
