Abstract: A measurement device includes a sensing portion and a measuring portion. The sensing portion contains at least a fluorescent material whose emitting of fluorescent light ceases due to an action of a radioactive beam. The measuring portion measures a radiation quantity of the radioactive beam, with which the sensing portion is irradiated, based on an amount of decrease in the intensity of the fluorescent light emitted by the fluorescent material contained in the sensing portion when the radioactive beam acts on at least a portion of the fluorescent material. The fluorescent light is emitted due to irradiation of the fluorescent material by an excitation source.

Abstract: A boron neutron capture therapy system has a neutron beam irradiation device, a patient restraint/placement portion, a three-dimensional diagnostic device, an irradiation table, a position adjustment mechanism, and a control unit. The boron neutron capture therapy system performs position determination with a sufficient degree of accuracy at the time of the boron neutron capture therapy. Further, the control unit, using the movement of the irradiation table, performs collision avoidance processing that changes the movement of the irradiation table before the patient restrained on the patient restraint/placement portion receives injury by colliding with the irradiation port, and thus, collision between the patient and the irradiation port can be avoided.

Abstract: Provided is a pilot type solenoid valve (100) providing a good operation even within a wide temperature specification range. The A pilot type solenoid valve (100) is configured such that a main valve body (40) made of aluminum is slidably housed in a suction element (80) made of a magnetic material. Then, an alumite treatment layer is formed on a sliding surface in the main valve body (40) along which the suction element (80) slides by applying an alumite treatment to the sliding surface. Thereby, a linear expansion coefficient of the main valve body (40) is brought close to a linear expansion coefficient of the suction element (80).

Abstract: A device information administrator detects a fluctuation in a total consumed power of a power-consuming device group and determines and outputs a consumed power to be changed by any of devices in the power-consuming device group so as to suppress this fluctuation. A power-save determinator generates and outputs a control command for at least one device of the power-consuming device group so that the total consumed power of the power-consuming device group changes in accordance with the consumed power to be changed outputted from the device information administrator. A device controller controls at least one device corresponding to the control command outputted from the power-save determinator in accordance with the control command. Accordingly, the fluctuation in the total consumed power of one or more power-consuming devices can be effectively suppressed.

Abstract: An arithmetic unit includes a switching device 16 and a cache controller 19. The switching device 16 determines whether desired data to be read by the CPU 11 is in a RAM 14, and allows, depending on a result of the determination, the CPU 11 to directly read the desired data from a ROM 13. The cache controller 19 controls a cache 12 so that the RAM 14 is initialized based on cache data corresponding to the desired data stored in the cache 12. In an arithmetic unit having a CPU, a cache, RAM, and ROM configured in the above manner, the time required for a startup process is reduced.
