Abstract
A particle size distribution measuring apparatus includes a light source that emits measurement light to a sample accommodated in a cell including a pair of light transmission plates separated from each other, one or a plurality of detectors that detects the measurement light scattered in the sample, and a particle size distribution calculator that calculates a particle size distribution of a particle group included in the sample based on output signals of the detectors. The particle size distribution measuring apparatus further includes a force applying mechanism that moves at least one of the light transmission plates to apply pressure or a shearing force to the sample in the cell, in which the particle size distribution calculator is configured to calculate the particle size distribution at the time when the pressure or the shearing force applied to the sample has changed from a first state to a second state.
