Abstract
A rotor for a rotary electric machine includes a rotor core made of magnetic material, and being in the form of a disk, and a plurality of magnet sets each including a pair of permanent magnets whose polarities are identical to each other. The magnet sets are arranged circumferentially in the rotor core so that the polarities of the magnet sets change alternately. The rotor core includes nonmagnetic portions each formed between adjacent two of the magnet sets.
