Abstract: A composition formula of each precursor ion located on a measured mass spectrum is estimated from the m/z value of the precursor ion (S11). A composition formula of each product ion located on a measured MS/MS spectrum is estimated from the m/z value of the product ion (S11). For each product-ion peak, the assignment of the peak is determined by verifying consistency between the composition formula of the product ion and the composition formula of each of the precursor ions (S13-S14). Based on the assignment result, the MS/MS spectrum data are separated and an MS/MS spectrum for each precursor ion is created (S15-S16). In this manner, MS/MS spectra which respectively correspond to a plurality of compounds can be created from an MS/MS spectrum in which the product ions originating from those compounds are mixed, and those compounds can be identified.

Abstract: Peak information is collected from an MS/MS spectrum in which the product ions generated from ions originating from a plurality of compounds are mixed. Using one of the m/z values of a plurality of ion species as precursor-ion information and the peak information of the MS/MS spectrum as product-ion information, a database search is performed to find candidate compounds for each compound, and a standard MS/MS spectrum of each candidate compound is obtained. For each combination of the candidate compounds, a virtual MS/MS spectrum is created by integrating the standard MS/MS spectra of those candidate compounds, and the degree of similarity between the virtual MS/MS spectrum and the measured MS/MS spectrum is calculated. If the candidate compounds are correct compounds, the degree of similarity will be high. Accordingly, the compound names and other results are visually presented to users in descending order of the degree of similarity.

Abstract: The objective of the present invention is to obtain an MS2 spectrum for each of a plurality of different ion species even when their m/z values are extremely close to each other and prevent separate setting of each ion species as the precursor ion. In the vicinity of the target m/z, a precursor-ion selection window covering a predetermined m/z range (2×?M) is gradually shifted in predetermined steps (?m) to define a plurality of windows as the condition of the precursor-ion selection. When an MS2 analysis is performed on the same sample for each window, the intensities of the product-ion peaks which appear on the MS2 spectrum change with the change in the central m/z value of the window. From this intensity change, which of the plurality of ion species selected as the precursor ion is the origin of each product ion is determined. Based on the result of this determination, the product ions are sorted out and an MS2 spectrum is reconstructed for each ion species.

Abstract: In conventional Al coated steel sheet, with the Al coating as it is, black discoloration cannot be prevented at 550° C. or more. For this reason, post annealing is used to form a barrier layer and suppress the formation of Fe—Al intermetallic compounds. However, with this method, there were the problems that the steel sheet became poor in workability and, further, high temperature, long time heating was required, so there were problems from the workability, economy, and environmental aspect. The present invention provides steel sheet which has a heat black discoloration resistance even at a 550° C. or more high temperature without additional annealing after Al coating and further is excellent in workability. That is, it is hot dip Al coated steel sheet which comprises steel sheet which contains predetermined ingredients of C, Si, P, S, Al, N, and O plus one or both of furthermore Ni: 0.01 to 0.1% or Cu: 0.01 to 0.1% and satisfies 10×C+Ni+Cu>0.

Abstract: A multilayer ceramic capacitor that includes an internal electrode containing at least one kind of metal A selected from the group consisting of In, Ga, Zn, Bi, and Pb and dissolved in Ni to form a solid solution. The internal electrode has a ratio of A of 1.4 atomic percent or more to a total amount of A and Ni in a near-interface region located to a depth of 2 nm from a surface of the internal electrode facing a corresponding ceramic dielectric layer. A relation between a value X of atomic percent representing the ratio of A in the near-interface region and a value Y of atomic percent representing the ratio of A in a central region in a thickness direction of the internal electrode is X?Y?1.0. Such a multilayer capacitor is formed by annealing a ceramic stack under a predetermined condition to increase the ratio of metal A in the near-interface region of the internal electrode.

Accordingly, the power consumption reduction effect by improving the efficiency of the induction motor can be maximized.

Abstract: A two-dimensional chromatogram creator creates a two-dimensional chromatogram based on data collected by a comprehensive two-dimensional GC/MS analysis. An extraction condition conformity determiner determines whether or not each MS/MS spectrum obtained through the analysis conforms to a compound extraction condition previously stored in a storage section, such as the presence of a specific peak on the MS/MS spectrum. Each spectrum which conforms to the condition is extracted. This spectrum is most likely to reflect a partial structure of a compound in which an analysis operator is interested. Accordingly, a condition conformity information superposing displayer displays a marker whose appearance varies according to the compound extraction condition, at a position corresponding to the retention time of the extracted spectrum on the two-dimensional chromatogram.

Abstract: In conducting multiple repetitions of MS/MS analysis on the same test sample for which a precursor ion whose m/z is known (m/z=M) has been established, MS/MS analysis is conducted under a dissociation condition in which CID is less prone to occur in part of the analysis. When an MS/MS spectrum is created by summing up spectral data thus obtained, a known precursor ion is observed at m/z=M without exception. Thus, a peak corresponding to the precursor ion is detected on the MS/MS spectrum, a mass deviation between an actual measured value and theoretical value M of m/z at the peak is determined, and a spectrum is created by correcting other peaks for mass shifts based on the mass deviation. This makes it possible to mass-calibrate the MS/MS spectrum in substantially the same manner as an internal standard method and improve mass accuracy over conventional methods.

Abstract: Data for a plurality of samples collected by an LC/MS, GC/MS or other systems are converted into a two-dimensional table format without losing information and with a light load, thereby allowing a multivariate analysis processing to be efficiently performed. After LC/MS data on a plurality of samples are obtained and the respective extracted ion chromatograms (XICs) are created (S1 and S2), the correction of the retention-time difference, the waveform processing and the like are performed (S3 and S4), followed by the creation of a one-dimensional table in which the signal-strength values are arranged for each XIC. Then, one-dimensional tables of a plurality of XICs for one sample are joined together in order of m/z value to create an elongate one-dimensional table (S5). The elongate one-dimensional tables of a plurality of samples are arranged in another dimensional direction to obtain a two-dimensional table (S6).

Abstract: From the data obtained by an LC/MS analysis in which an automatic MSn analysis is performed, all MS2 spectrum data are collected (S1), and a data matrix is created whose elements are peak intensity data with different precursor ions being arrayed in the horizontal direction and the mass-to-charge ratio of the product ions in the vertical direction (S2). By using the data in this data matrix, the correlation coefficients between two precursor ions are computed to create a correlation coefficient matrix (S3). In the correlation coefficient matrix, the diagonal elements whose value is “1” are all replaced by “0” to create an adjacency matrix (S4). A network analysis is performed for the adjacency matrix to create a network map showing the correlations among different precursor ions (MS2spectra) (S5).
