Abstract: To avoid the complication of an MRI apparatus and avoid the overestimation of a calculated value of SAR without extending a processing time and to perform accurate SAR management. To this end, the MRI apparatus is equipped with a high frequency antenna which has a plurality of channels and resonates at a predetermined frequency, and a measuring instrument which measures the amplitudes of a forward traveling and reflected waves of each high frequency signal supplied to the high frequency antenna. In the MRI apparatus, a reflection matrix S is determined based on the measured amplitudes. Diagonal terms of the determined reflection matrix S are used to calculate Q values for each of the channels. Each non-diagonal term of the reflection matrix S is used to correct the calculated Q value.

The specific gravity of the weight member is 2.5 or more. The length of the weight member is 20 mm or less. The weight member is disposed in a grip-end portion of the golf club shaft so that a mass distribution in the axis direction of the grip-end portion has a local maximum occurring at a position within the grip-end portion, wherein the grip-end portion is defined as extending from the grip end toward the second end by 40 mm in the axis direction.

Abstract: A grip for a golf club includes a cylindrical portion into which a shaft is inserted; and an end cap portion. The cylindrical portion, on its outer surface, includes a minute projection region where a plurality of minute projections each of which has a maximum width of 0.2 mm or more and 1.2 mm or less are arranged at intervals of 0.05 mm or more and 0.7 mm or less. The minute projection region is disposed in a first region whose distance in an axial direction from a grip butt end is from 0 mm to 210 mm. Of the grip, a portion from the grip butt end up to 50 mm therefrom has a weight of 10 g or more, and the weight accounts for 39% or more of the whole weight of the grip.

Abstract: A shaft set 2S includes a first shaft SF1, a second shaft SF2 shorter than the first shaft SF1, and a third shaft SF3 shorter than the second shaft SF2. At least the second shaft SF2 and the third shaft SF3 each include butt partial bias layers s3 and s4. Weights of the butt partial bias layers s3 and s4 are increased as the shaft is shortened. At least the first shaft SF1 and the second shaft SF2 each include tip partial bias layers s10 and s11. Weights of the tip partial bias layers s10 and s11 are decreased as the shaft is shortened.

Abstract: A pumping apparatus includes a pump chamber, a piston, a motor, and a controller. The controller determines an imaginary terminal point by referring to a dispense command, theoretical information, and a current position of the piston. The controller corrects the imaginary terminal point to a target position by referring to a correction graph. The controller outputs a drive command to the motor for moving the piston from a start position to the target position.

Abstract: Based on first data transmitted from a game controller, a game apparatus executes game processing for catching a predetermined game character and transmits, to the game controller, second data corresponding to the game character as a target to be caught. Based on the transmitted second data, the game controller outputs a sound corresponding to the caught game character.

The information processing unit makes mode transition from the first mode to the second mode when it has performed processing including reading of the packet by the reading module.

Abstract: In an MRI apparatus, an imaging that produces almost no sound is implemented without extending an imaging time, not only for three-dimensional imaging, but also for two-dimensional imaging. A gradient pulse in a pulse sequence provided in the MRI apparatus is adjusted by using a basic waveform having a distribution of frequencies where strength dwindles substantially as the frequency increases from zero, and the waveform is convex upward or downward varying smoothly. An application time and strength are adjusted so that almost no sound is produced. Any imaging executable by a conventional pulse sequence can be implemented without producing almost any sound, using the conventional pulse sequence with little change.

Abstract: An example communication system includes a mobile terminal and a BLE terminal. The mobile terminal and the BLE terminal establish a connection therebetween and perform communication with each other at a predetermined time interval. The mobile terminal transmits representation data to the BLE terminal, and the BLE terminal performs a first representation on the basis of the representation data. After the first representation ends, when a button operation is performed in the BLE terminal, operation result information indicating the button operation is accumulated in the BLE terminal. The accumulated operation result information is transmitted from the BLE terminal to the mobile terminal at a timing at which communication between the mobile terminal and the BLE terminal is performed next. The mobile terminal performs, for example, a game process on the basis of the operation result information from the BLE terminal.
