Abstract: A solder alloy includes 35 mass % or more and 65 mass % or less of Bi, 0.1 mass % or more and 0.65 mass % or less of Sb, 0.05 mass % or more and 2 mass % or less of Ag, and a balance including Sn and an inevitable impurity.

Abstract: A water jet peening apparatus includes: a nozzle, which is arranged in water and has a mouth from which water is jetted out; a detecting device, which is arranged in the water and detects sound in at least a part of a period during which the water is being jetted out from the mouth; and a processing device, which determines, based on a result of the detection by the detecting device, presence or absence of abnormality in the nozzle.

Abstract: An active noise insulation wall includes an active sound reduction apparatus disposed on an upper end surface of a noise insulation wall. The active sound reduction apparatus comprises a combination of an active acoustic control cell and a sound tube. The active acoustic control cell controls a coming noise such that a diffracted sound pressure component of the coming noise at the upper end surface of the noise insulation wall is actively reduced. The sound tube decreases a sound wave of a frequency different from a target frequency of the active acoustic control cell. Thus, the active noise insulation wall can effectively reduce noises including many frequency components.

Abstract: An electronics packaging system (1) including a printer (3), a placing unit (4) and a reflow unit (5), wherein a printed wiring board (2) is carried while being kept in an upright position. The printed wiring board (2) has solder printed on all the lands thereof at the same time, the electronic parts (10) are all placed on the lands at the same time, and the electronic parts (10) are all soldered to the lands at the same time. Thus, the system (1) can be designed more compact, and the electronic parts packaged in a shorter time.

Abstract: The present invention enables a lower cost, a smaller equipment size, and a simplified operation for analysis. The invention comprises the steps of tilting a container 29 containing a biological sample and ejecting the biological sample within the container 29 onto the central portion of a cartridge 33 mounted on a turntable 21; rotating the turntable 21, exerting a centrifugal force upon the biological sample on the cartridge 33, and guiding the biological sample evenly into a plurality of reagent containing parts 41 arranged radially in the cartridge 33; and analyzing the biological sample after it is guided into each of the reagent containing parts 41 and mixed with a reagent 42, 44 within each of the reagent containing parts 41.
