Summary:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an illumination optical system which ensures high illumination efficiency while using a discharge tube of a normal ultra-high-voltage mercury vapor lamp or a laser light source, without using a special light source. SOLUTION: This invention relates to the illumination optical system 10 in which an object to be irradiated is irradiated with light introduced from a light source 18. The illumination optical system 10 includes a circulation optical system 17 which acquires part of light incident on a plane 14 conjugate to the object to be irradiated and guides again the acquired light to the plane 14 conjugate to the object to be irradiated.
