Abstract
Polarization tunability and analysis of X-rays is one of the most advancing features of third-generation synchrotron radiation sources. In order to ap ply such developments to the observation of magnetic effects, a diffractome ter for X-ray magnetic absorption and scattering experiments was constructe d on BL39XU at SPring-8. The efficiency of the apparatus is clearly demonst rated by several observations of the magnetic effects. In particular, a dia mond phase plate plays an essential role in regulating both circular and li near polarization states.
