In order to secure measurement reproducibility and a measurement accuracy by making it possible to automatically execute a bubble removal sequence as needed, the particle size distribution measurement device comprises a circulation flow channel through which the dispersion medium circulates, a flow cell arranged in the circulation flow channel, an imaging device that takes a particle image as being an image of a particle in the flow cell, and a bubble removal execution part that obtains bubble information which is obtained based on the particle image and which is about a bubble in the dispersion medium and that executes a bubble removal sequence to remove the bubble from the dispersion medium circulating in the circulation flow channel in case that the bubble information meets a predetermined condition.

A method, to perform glow discharge optical emission spectrometry using a glow discharge tube equipped with an electrode having an end section, for producing a sample containing object that is to be disposed so as to be opposed to the end section, comprises: covering one end of a sample holding section having a cylindrical shape and being open at both ends using a covering member; filling a powder sample containing a material to be analyzed into the sample holding section; compressing the powder sample by pressurizing the filled powder sample from the other end to the one end of the sample holding section; and removing the covering member from the sample holding section, thereby producing the sample containing object which includes the sample holding section and the compressed powder sample and from which the compressed powder sample is exposed from the one end.
