Monochromatic light in a wide energy range (30-300 eV (VUV) and 250-2000 eV (SX)) are available at the same port by using two undulators for VUV and SX lights in tandem alignment and grazing incidence monochromators.
Vertical and horizontal linear polarized and left and right circular polarized lights are available at the VUV region.
A horizontal linear polarized light is available at the SX region.
Branch BF is a free port, at which a bring-your-own equipment can be installed.
