Abstract: Provided is a rare-earth anisotropic magnet powder capable of achieving high magnetic properties while reducing the usage of Nd and Pr. The present invention provides a rare-earth anisotropic magnet powder comprising magnetic particles that contain rare-earth elements, boron, and a transition metal element. The rare-earth elements include a first rare-earth element that comprises Ce and/or La and a second rare-earth element that comprises Nd and/or Pr. The rare-earth elements have a first ratio (R1/Rt) of 5% to 57%. The first ratio (R1/Rt) is a ratio of an amount (R1) of the first rare-earth element to a total amount (Rt) of the rare-earth elements in terms of the number of atoms. The first rare-earth element has a La ratio (La/R1) of 0% to 35%. The La ratio (La/R1) is a ratio of an amount of La to the amount (R1) of the first rare-earth element in terms of the number of atoms. The magnetic particles have a Ga content of 0.35 at % or less with respect to 100 at % as a whole.

Abstract: Disclosed is a calibration curve setting method for setting a calibration curve, the calibration curve setting method including: creating a first calibration curve on the basis of a measurement value obtained by measuring a standard sample for which a concentration of a predetermined component is known; creating a second calibration curve by correcting the created first calibration curve; displaying a screen configured to support an operator for restoring the second calibration curve to the first calibration curve; receiving an instruction of restoring the second calibration curve to the first calibration curve; and displaying the first calibration curve upon receiving the instruction of restoring.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for displaying calibration curve including: measuring a standard sample that contains a known concentration of a component, and creating a calibration curve before being validated, based on a measurement result of the standard sample and the known concentration of the component in the standard sample; measuring a quality control sample that contains a component having a known concentration, and obtaining a quality control result representing a concentration of the component in the quality control sample by converting a measurement result of the quality control sample into concentration based on the calibration curve before being validated; and displaying a screen including the calibration curve before being validated and the quality control result.

Abstract: Disclosed is a sample measurement device comprising a first processing unit that performs a first measurement on a sample contained in a first container in a first cycle; a second processing unit that performs a second measurement on a sample contained in a second container in a second cycle different from the first cycle; and a relay section which is disposed between the first processing unit and the second processing unit and in which the second container is positioned, wherein the first processing unit performs a transferring operation of transferring the second container to the relay section, and the second processing unit performs a receiving operation of receiving the second container that has been transferred to the relay section from the relay section.

Abstract: A method according to one or more aspects may be for displaying measurement results of measurement items by a sample analyzer. The method may include displaying each of the measurement items selectably on a display unit, and displaying a notification concerning any of the measurement results in association with the corresponding measurement item on the display unit; and in response to selection of at least one of the measurement items, displaying the measurement result of the selected at least one of the measurement items on the display unit.

Abstract: A display method according to one or more aspects may be a method used in a sample analyzer comprising holders configured to hold reagent containers of reagents used for an analysis of a sample. The display method may include: displaying, on a display unit, icons respectively associated with the holders; receiving selection of icons from the icons displayed on the display unit; and receiving an instruction for a predetermined operation relevant to the selected icons.

Abstract: A wireless communication apparatus includes a power-supply apparatus configured to supply electric power to a load that is intermittently operated by using a battery as a power supply; and a control unit configured to control the power-supply apparatus, wherein the power-supply apparatus includes a capacitor; a switching unit capable of selectively forming a first path through which charging is performed from the battery to the capacitor and a second path through which the battery is connected in series with the capacitor, and wherein the control unit controls the switching unit so that the first path is formed during a period in which the load is idle and the second path is formed during a period in which the load is not idle, and thereby supplies the voltage of the sum of the battery voltage and the charged voltage of the capacitor in a non-idle period.
