Abstract: Semiconductor nanoparticles are provided. The semiconductor nanoparticles contains Ag, at least one of In and Ga, and Se. An Ag content is 10 mol % to 30 mol %, a total content of the at least one of In and Ga is 15 mol % to 35 mol %, and an Se content is 35 mol % to 55 mol % in the semiconductor nanoparticles. The semiconductor nanoparticles emit light having an emission spectrum with a peak emission wavelength in a range of 500 nm to 900 nm, and a half bandwidth of 250 meV or less upon irradiation with light in a wavelength range of 350 nm to less than 500 nm.

Abstract: A bearing device includes a plurality of bearing pads tiltably supporting a rotation shaft which rotates about an axial line, from the outer circumferential side of the rotation shaft, the bearing pads being spaced apart along the circumferential direction; and an oil supply part that supplies oil between the outer circumferential surface of the rotation shaft and pad surfaces of the bearing pads which face the rotation shaft. The plurality of bearing pads include a first bearing pad that supports the rotation shaft directly below the axial line, and a pair of second bearing pads which sandwich the first bearing pad from the rotation direction. Among the first bearing pad and the second bearing pads, a groove is formed only on the pad surfaces of the second bearing pads so as to extend in the rotation direction.

Abstract: A bearing pad that supports a rotating shaft rotating about an axis includes: a pad body having a hollow portion formed therein, a lubricating oil supply path for supplying a lubricating oil to the hollow portion, and a lubricating oil discharge path for discharging the lubricating oil to an outside from the hollow portion; and a support structure that is packed into the hollow portion and radially connects inner wall surfaces forming the hollow portion while including a space. The hollow portion is formed in a region shifted to a forward side in a rotation direction of the rotating shaft in the pad body.

Abstract: A tilting pad bearing includes a plurality of pads slidably supporting an outside surface of a rotor shaft, a housing covering the plurality of pads, a support portion swingably supporting the pad with respect to the housing, and a fluid supply unit configured to supply a fluid to a pad surface. The support portion includes a pivot having a pad support surface in contact with a pad outside surface and a pivot curved surface curved facing and protruding toward a side opposite to the pad support surface, a liner having a first liner surface in contact with the pivot curved surface, and a biasing member biasing the liner toward the pivot with respect to the housing.

Abstract: A centrifugal rotating machine includes a rotor in which impellers are attached to the axial ends of a rotating shaft that extends in the axial direction, said impellers rotating in a rotating direction around the rotating shaft so as to draw in fluid from an intake side in the axial direction and discharge fluid from the outer side thereof in the radial direction. According to this device for measuring dynamic characteristics of said centrifugal rotating machine, a cover for covering an impeller is attached to a region of the impeller other than an intake opening on the intake side thereof, and a magnetic force generator for vibrating the impeller by magnetic force is disposed so as to face the cover.

Abstract: This magnetic core (1) comprises: a columnar core part (11) that is arranged inside a coil (2); and a tubular yoke part (12) that is arranged outside the coil (2). The core part (11) and the yoke part (12) overlap the arrangement region of the coil (2) in the axial direction. The entirety of the core part (11) is configured from a high magnetic flux density material that has a higher magnetic flux density than commonly used magnetic materials.
