To provide the solar simulator that facilitates making the flash light emitted from the lamp into the desirable irradiance waveform. In the solar simulator 1, the controller 12, according to the control pattern preset to maintain the flash light F emitted from the xenon lamp 14 at the target irradiance for a certain period of time, controls the electric current, which is discharged from the condenser assembly 26 and flowing through the xenon lamp 14, by performing the switching drive on the power switching element 20. |
