Summary: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.
