Abstract: There are provided a microwave irradiation apparatus and a production method of metal nanoparticles for producing the metal nanoparticles that allow efficiently preparing the metal nanoparticles having small and uniform particle sizes. The present disclosure relates to the microwave irradiation apparatus that includes two microwave irradiation sources, two waveguides, and one reaction portion. The two microwave irradiation sources are disposed such that respective microwave emission units thereof face one another. The two microwave irradiation sources, the two waveguides, and the one reaction portion are disposed such that respective microwaves emitted from the two microwave irradiation sources pass through the two waveguides and contact an entire surface of the one reaction portion. Furthermore, the reaction portion is adjusted to have a specific size.

Abstract: An information processing device includes an execution unit that executes a control program for causing a functional unit to realize a predetermined function, a memory that stores the control program, a state variable indicating a state of the functional unit, and activation history of either initial activation or second and following activation, in a nonvolatile memory, and a communication unit that causes the execution unit to communicate with the functional unit, wherein the execution unit includes a first procedure where the control program is stored in the memory and the control program is read and is executed, and a second procedure where the control program pre-stored in the memory is read and is executed, refers to the activation history when activation is performed, executes the first procedure in a case of the initial activation, and executes the second procedure in a case of the second and following activation.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes a plurality of functioning units each having a reception functioning unit, a control receiving unit and a controlling unit. Each of the reception functioning unit and the control receiving unit has a high power state and a low power state as an operational state, respectively. In a case that the control receiving unit is in the high power state, the controlling unit transits the operational state of the functioning unit from the high power state to the low power state when a first set time elapses after an execution of a processing is terminated. In another case that the control receiving unit is in the low power state, the controlling unit transits the operational state of the functioning unit from the high power state to the low power state when a second set time elapses after the execution of the processing is terminated.

Abstract: An image forming system includes an image forming apparatus, a transmission apparatus, a reception section that is provided in the image forming apparatus and receives a designation of the transmission apparatus, a first transmission section that is provided in the image forming apparatus and transmits apparatus information indicating the own apparatus to a transmission apparatus designated in the reception section, a first storage unit that is provided in the transmission apparatus and stores the apparatus information transmitted from the first transmission section, a second transmission section that is provided in the transmission apparatus and transmits image data to an image forming apparatus indicated by the apparatus information stored in the first storage section, and an image forming unit that is provided in the image forming apparatus and forms an image corresponding to the image data transmitted from the second transmission section.
