Zusammenfassung:	A lithographic apparatus includes an illumination system configured to condition a radiation beam substantially from a light emitting point. The illumination system includes a contaminant trapping system. The trapping system includes a contaminant trap having a central zone and a peripheral zone. The trap includes a plurality of platelets that extend substantially outwards through the peripheral zone. The light emitting point is in a plane with which the platelets coincide. Each of the platelets has a normal with a component directed towards the central zone.
