Abstract: When adjusting optical axes of a multi-beam charged particle beam device, because parameters of optical systems are inter-dependent, the time required to adjust the parameters increases. Thus, the present invention provides a charged particle beam device provided with an optical parameter setting unit for setting parameters of optical systems for emitting a plurality of primary charged particle beams to a sample, detectors for individually detecting a plurality of secondary charged particle beams discharged from the sample, a plurality of memories for storing signals detected by the detectors and converted into digital pixels in the form of images, evaluation value derivation units for deriving evaluation values of the primary charged particle beams from the images, and a GUI capable of displaying the images and receiving an input from a user, wherein the GUI displays the images and evaluation results based on the evaluation values and changes various optical parameters in real-time.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes a processor configured to impose a group of pages on a single sheet as a target for reprinting and perform reprinting, the group of pages being referred to as printing-error pages, each of the pages having been printed with a printing error that occurred while multiple pages imposed on one or more sheets were printed.

Abstract: A satisfaction level calculation device (10) acquires environmental data detected by each of a plurality of environment sensors (20). The satisfaction level calculation device (10) sets each of a plurality of indexes about a space environment as a target index. The satisfaction level calculation device (10) calculates, from the environmental data acquired by measuring the target index, an individual satisfaction level, which is a satisfaction level of the target index. The satisfaction level calculation device (10) calculates, from the individual satisfaction level about each of the plurality of indexes, an overall satisfaction level, which is an overall satisfaction level about the space environment.

Abstract: Provided are modified microorganisms, such as live recombinant commensal bacteria, that express a non-native antigen, or are surface-labeled with a non-native antigen, and methods of using the modified microorganisms to induce an antigen-specific immune response to the non-native antigen. The modified microorganism can be used to induce a regulatory T cell immune response to the heterologous antigen to treat an autoimmune disease in a subject in need thereof, or can be used to induce an effector T cell immune response to the heterologous antigen to treat an infectious disease or proliferative disease in a subject in need thereof.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to acquire a copy image, that is a copy of an image displayed on a display device, every time a predetermined timing occurs, and store the acquired copy image in a storage device in association with information indicating the predetermined timing that triggers the acquisition.

Abstract: A method for analyzing a gas includes: allowing a sample gas to be adsorbed by each of a plurality of adsorbents (70) respectively having compositions that are different from each other; allowing the sample gas to be desorbed individually from the adsorbents (70) while detecting individually the sample gas desorbed from each of the adsorbents (70) so as to acquire desorption profiles of the sample gas that are respectively unique to the adsorbents (70); and identifying the sample gas by using a group of the desorption profiles. The acquiring of the desorption profiles is carried out by detecting, individually and over time, the sample gas desorbed from each of the adsorbents (70). Each of the desorption profiles is, for example, an overtime data created from a detection signal reflecting a quantity of the sample gas.

Abstract: A virtual computer system includes a first saving unit that saves at least one or more snapshots each having recorded therein a state of a virtual machine, the state including an application program installed on the virtual machine, the snapshot being saved as a reference snapshot; an applying unit that applies the reference snapshot to the virtual machine when an execution request for the application program is received; and a second saving unit that saves a state of the virtual machine that executes the application program, the state being saved as a snapshot.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes a detection unit and a determination unit. The detection unit detects an error by comparing image data related to a print job with read image data obtained as a result of reading a print output related to the print job. The determination unit compares read image data related to a post-error print output, which is a continuously-printed print output related to the print job for a page subsequent to a page in which the error is detected, with the image data when the error is detected by the detection unit, so as to determine a process for recovering the print job by using the post-error print output.
