Abstract: The present invention provides an analysis data management system with which users can efficiently check a number of analysis results obtained through a batch analysis or some other process. The system creates a list of waveform images each showing a chromatogram or spectrum representing each of the analysis results. This list facilitates the visual checking of whether there is any abnormal waveform. After checking each checkbox corresponding to each waveform image showing an abnormal waveform, the user performs a predetermined operation, in response to which the system creates a list of analysis setting data corresponding to the checked waveform images. After changing the setting data on the list according to necessity, the user commands the system to carry out the batch process again.

Abstract: This invention relates to a wide-write/narrow-read head having a pair of C-shaped cores one of which is used as a read core and the other of which is used as a write core, and a closure core which is provided between the two cores to shut off side magnetic circuits at the time of data reading. The closure is reduced in thickness at the tip end and is shaped to slope toward the read head so as to increase magnetic resistance from said closure core to said read core in order to prevent the magnetic flux extending between said write core and said closure core from leaking into said read core from said closure core.
