Abstract
A neutron scintillator composed of a resin composition comprising (A) an inorganic phosphor containing at least one neutron capture isotope selected from lithium 6 and boron 10 and (B) a resin, wherein the inorganic phosphor is a particle having a specific surface area of 50 to 3,000 cm2/cm3, and the internal transmittance based on 1 cm of the optical path length of the resin composition is 30%/cm or more at the emission wavelength of the inorganic phosphor.
