In recent years, the orbital radiation from the electron synchrotron is utilized as a light source in the soft x-ray and vacuum ultraviolet region. In this article, the characieriatics of the radiation are clarified in the case of the INS electron synchrotron. The power spectral distributions, the angular power distributions, and the relation of the emitted power spectrum to the electron energy are given. The practical intensities of the radiation, which enter a 10 micron slit at the experimental site 8 meter apart from the orbit, are tabulated for various wavelengths and electron energies.
