Radiation imaging apparatus, radiation imaging system, and correction method

The invention intends to be able to adequately perform a gain correction. Hence, at the time of radiographing an object, a gain correction of the object image is performed based on a gain correction image (XRc1) derived by performing a light reset. On the other hand, at the time of radiographing an object, when a light reset is not performed, a gain correction of the object image is performed based on a gain correction image (XRc2) derived without performing the light reset.

Controller of internal combustion engine

A rotation speed calculation interval is set near a combustion top dead center of each cylinder of an engine. An interval rotation time necessary for a crankshaft to rotate through the rotation speed calculation interval is calculated as angular speed information of the crankshaft in the rotation speed calculation interval for each combustion stroke of the engine. Engine rotation speed is calculated based on the interval rotation time. The angular speed information of the crankshaft in the rotation speed calculation interval set near the combustion top dead center reflects a combustion state or generated torque. By calculating the engine rotation speed based on the angular speed information, the engine rotation speed highly correlated with the combustion state or the generated torque of the engine can be calculated.

Time-of-flight type mass spectrometer

A time-of-flight type mass spectrometer in which, at the time when ions are generated by irradiating a sample with a laser beam, an extraction electric field having a potential gradient that decreases gradually from a sample plate toward an extraction electrode is formed. Ions are roughly separated in accordance with the m / z in the extraction region due to the effect of this electric field, and ions with a large m / z remain near the sample. The voltages applied to the sample plate and an auxiliary electrode are increased after a delay time has passed so as to form an acceleration electric field having a potential gradient with a polygonal line pattern. Since this electric field is similar to an ideal potential gradient curve, it is possible to provide the ions with appropriate potential energy changes for each m / z, improving resolution by appropriately realizing energy convergence over a wide m / z range.
