Abstract
According to an embodiment, a radiation-scintillated shield which attenuates an incident radiation, includes a shielding part containing an activator-added gadolinium compound as an aggregate. The activator uses the gadolinium compound as a base material and emits light when struck by the radiation. Consequently, it becomes possible to shield a γ-ray and a neutron with a thickness which is about the same as that of a conventional concrete shield of γ-ray shield, and to confirm leakage of radiation.

Furthermore, preferably, the amorphous phase exists along 80%-100% of the perimeter of the crystalline phase in the primary particles. Furthermore, preferably, the amorphous phase exists along 100% of the perimeter of the crystalline phase in the primary particles.

By a homogenizing the amount of Re content in an arbitrary cross-section of a ReW wire rod body, it is possible to achieve a ReW wire rod which ensures mechanical properties without variation in material quality and which greatly contributes to improving stability of thermo-electromotive force. For ReW, normally a powder alloy method is adopted which involves mixing powder, and forming and sintering the same. Because ReW sintering is advanced by means of solid phase expansion, phase regions (σ-phase segregated phase) with a locally high Re composition ratio occur due to powder particle size distribution, mixing state, or forming/sintering conditions. When a sintered body with a large amount of variation in such a Re composition is processed into rods or wire (wire rods), non-homogeneity resulting from Re amount variation (fluctuation) occurs in the processing direction cross-section and axial-direction perpendicular cross-section. This rhenium tungsten wire rod is formed from a tungsten alloy containing rhenium, wherein the rhenium content in an arbitrary measurement area with a 1 μm diameter unit surface area in the wire rod body is less than 30 wt%.
