Phase I of the X21 beamline at the National Synchrotron Light Source was commissioned during 1993. The research program at the X21 beamline is focused on the study of electronic excitations in condensed matter with total energy resolution of 0.1--1.0 eV. The source is a 27-pole hybrid wiggler. A water-cooled horizontal focusing Si(220) monochromator and a spherically bent Si(444) analyzer were installed and commissioned. At 8 keV the energy resolution of the monochromator is about 0.7 eV, and the energy resolution of the analyzer is about 0.1 eV. Results from several selected experiments are also discussed.
