Abstract: A charged particle emission device includes a pre-emission state detector configured to detect a pre-emission charged state which is a charged state of the charged object before charged particles are emitted, an emission time generator configured to generate an emission time based on a past emission time of charged particles and a charged state of the charged object after the emission, emission processor circuitry configured to emit charged particles to the charged object which is in the pre-emission charged state based on the generated emission time, a post-emission state detector configured to detect a post-emission charged state which is a charged state of the charged object after the charged particles are emitted, machine learning processor circuitry configured to cause a machine learning model to learn a correspondence among the pre-emission charged state, the post-emission charged state, and the emission time generated by the emission time generator.

Abstract: An automatic transmission for a vehicle a shift pattern, restricting the movement of a shift lever, including at least an H-shaped portion. When the shift lever has been moved to any shift position of the pattern, a range and a gear ratio which corresponds to the shift position are selected. When the shift lever is released from the shift position in the lowest stage, the gearing is shifted to the ratio which is higher than the lowest stage by one step. When the shift lever is released from the shift position in the highest stage, the gearing is shifted to the ratio which is lower than the maximum stage by one step. When the shift lever is moved to a position intermediate the shift positions, the range and the gear ratio which correspond to the shift position before the movement can be maintained or the automatic transmission range can be established.
