摘要:
Disclosed are: an information recording technology capable of shortening the termination process time when the recording ends; and an information recording technology capable of recording independently of limitations due to the maximum number of video title sets and titles, wherein information is recorded on a recording medium according to recording instructions such as a recording start instruction and a recording stop instruction. During a finalization process, management information is generated and is recorded on the recording medium. Based on this management information, the information generated by a single recording instruction is managed as one chapter. At least one chapter is managed as one title. At least one title is managed as one video title set.

The present invention provides a cosmetic having equal to or a higher antioxidant activity and moisture retaining property than the above-described conventional vitamin E derivatives. The cosmetic also has an excellent emulsifying ability and solubilizing ability and remarkably reduces a sticky feeling on the skin (in particular, the sticky feeling during drying after the application on the skin). That is, the cosmetic of the present invention containing a vitamin E derivative represented by the following formula (I) or a salt thereof. [In the formula, R1, R2, and R3 represent a hydrogen atom or a methyl group; R4 represents a C1-6 alkanoyl group, a C1-6 alkyl group, a SO3H group, a P(O)(OH)2 group, a CH2COOH group or a COCH2CH(SO3H)COOH group; EO represents an ethylene oxide group; BO represents a butylene oxide group; k and n independently represent any one of numbers 0 to 30; and m represents any one of numbers 1 to 30.]

Disclosed herein are embodiments of a control apparatus for a hybrid vehicle that is capable of suppressing overheating of the second clutch. Control is switched between engine-used slip drive control and motor drive control on a basis of a temperature of the second clutch. Control methods for a hybrid vehicle are also disclosed.
摘要:
A reproduction apparatus on which secondary video, which is displayed as a picture in picture video, is encoded in such a way that the secondary video information has an HD-size resolution as a video but its effective area is equal to or lower than a predetermined ratio of the whole size. This reproduction apparatus reduces the processing load at reproduction time, uses effective area information to determine the opacity level in combining the videos and, therefore, prevents primary video from being hidden by the secondary video in an area where the primary video should not be hidden.

A recording apparatus for recording, on an optical disk recording medium which is computer readable, data management information for managing N (N is an integer) pieces of data as a data group, and total management information for managing M (M is an integer) pieces of the data group. Time zone information (TM_ZONE) indicating a time difference between a world standard time and a standard time in a predetermined location is recorded on the total management information. Further, on respective data management information is recorded, recording time zone information (REC_TM_ZONE) at a time of recording data indicating a time difference between the world standard time and a standard time in a location where the data have been recorded, and first and second data recording time information.
摘要:
On a single chip are formed a plurality of magnetoresistance effect elements provided with pinned layers having fixed magnetization axes in the directions that cross each other. On a substrate 10 are formed magnetic layers that will become two magnetic tunnel effect elements 11, 21 as magnetoresistance effect elements. Magnetic-field-applying magnetic layers made of NiCo are formed to sandwich the magnetic layers in plan view. A magnetic field is applied to the magnetic-field-applying magnetic layers. The magnetic field is removed after the magnetic-field-applying magnetic layers are magnetized in the direction shown by arrow A. As a result of this, by the residual magnetization of the magnetic-field-applying magnetic layers, magnetic fields in the directions shown by arrows B are applied to the magnetic layers that will become magnetic tunnel effect elements 11, 21, whereby the magnetization of the pinned layers of the magnetic layers that will become magnetic tunnel effect elements 11, 21 is pinned in the directions shown by arrows B.
摘要:
A protector protuberance is formed on a head slider incorporated in a recording medium drive such as a hard disk drive. The protector protuberance is allowed to collide against a contamination on a recording medium in front of a head element mounted on the head slider. The head element can be protected from collision against the contamination behind the protector protuberance. The protector protuberance is located as close to the head element as possible. Even with a smaller protector protuberance, the front and rear support protrusions contact the recording medium so as to hold the slider body above the surface of the recording medium. An increase can be prevented in the adsorption acting between the slider body and a lubricant agent spreading over the surface of the recording medium. A smaller protector protuberance enables the head element to approach the recording medium as close as possible upon read/write operations.
摘要:
In an apparatus not connected to a network can perform the reproduction within a valid viewing period. Also, in order to facilitate the change of the encryption algorithms of a password, a program recorded on the disk comprises the steps of acquiring a first medium identification number recorded on a recording medium, acquiring the current time, acquiring a password, calculating a second medium identification number and the expiry date of the valid viewing period from the password, comparing the first medium identification number with the second medium identification number, and comparing the current time with the expiry date of the valid viewing period. In the case where the first medium identification number coincides with the second medium identification number and the current time has not passed the expiry date of the valid viewing period, then the predetermined information is reproduced from the recording medium.

A glass substrate for a magnetic recording medium has a textured surface having numerous grooves extending in the circumferential direction of the glass substrate. The average roughness of the textured surface is 0.4 nm or less. The number of the grooves is 15 or more per micrometer. The average depth of the grooves is 2 nm or less. The grooves are formed by mechanical texturing using a texturing liquid applied between a texturing tape and the surface of a blank glass substrate rotating. The texturing liquid is an aqueous dispersion of fine diamond abrasive grains.

A resonance-frequency measuring method is used for measuring a resonance frequency of an information recording/reproducing device reproducing information recorded on a medium by driving a mechanism unit. The resonance-frequency measuring method comprises the measuring step of applying sine-wave oscillations at different frequencies one by one to the mechanism unit, and counting the number of times information reproduced upon application of each of the sine-wave oscillations differs from information indicating an aimed location, and the resonance-frequency determining step of determining the resonance frequency according to the number of times counted in the measuring step.
