An undulator beamline for spectroscopy studies focusing on the electronic structure of actinide materials is under construction. Linearly or circularly polarized soft X-rays are provided by employing a variably polarizing undulator. Varied-line-spacing plane gratings and a sagittal-focusing system are used to monochromatize the undulator beam, whose energy ranges from 0.3 to 1.5 keV. A resolving power of 10(4) is expected in the whole energy region. These components are methodically operated by the SPring-8 beamline control system. There are three experimental stations in the beamline. In one of the stations the photoemission spectroscopy experiments are carried out at a radioisotope-controlled area where actinide compounds as well as unsealed radioactive materials are usable. Other experimental stations are planned in the beamline for surface photochemical reactions and biological applications.
