Abstract: A vehicle control apparatus for performing autonomous driving of a host vehicle. The vehicle control apparatus includes an operating section information acquisition unit configured to acquire operating section information that is information of an operating section in which vehicle stability control by brake control has been operated in a vehicle in autonomous driving in the past; an operation plan generation unit configured to generate an operation plan of autonomous driving of the host vehicle based on a preset target route and map information; and a vehicle controller configured to perform autonomous driving along the operation plan, wherein the operation plan generation unit generates the operation plan so that the host vehicle does not stop in the operating section.

Abstract: Provided are a method for manufacturing a silicon carbide single crystal, which can suppress conversion of threading edge dislocations into prismatic plane dislocations and conversion of the prismatic plane dislocations into basal plane dislocations; and a silicon carbide single crystal ingot and a silicon carbide wafer, in which conversion from threading edge dislocations into prismatic plane dislocations and conversion from the prismatic plane dislocations into basal plane dislocations have been suppressed. A silicon carbide single crystal is grown on the surface of a seed substrate by a gas method so that a temperature gradient in the radial direction of the seed substrate takes a predetermined value or lower during the growth.

The present invention relates to a compound represented by the formula (I) or a salt thereof. wherein each symbol is as described in the specification, or a salt thereof.

Abstract: To provide a fine nickel powder for an internal electrode paste of an electronic component, the nickel powder obtained by a wet method and having high crystallinity, excellent sintering characteristics, and heat-shrinking characteristics. The nickel powder is obtained by precipitating nickel by a reduction reaction in a reaction solution including at least water-soluble nickel salt, salt of metal nobler than nickel, hydrazine as a reducing agent, and alkali metal hydroxide as a pH adjusting agent and water; the reaction solution is prepared by mixing a nickel salt solution including the water-soluble nickel salt and the salt of metal nobler than nickel with a mixed reducing agent solution including hydrazine and alkali metal hydroxide; and the hydrazine is additionally added to the reaction solution after a reduction reaction initiates in the reaction solution.
