An object of the present invention is to provide a solid scintillator having short afterglow and high output, and a radiation detector and a tomograph using the solid scintillator. A solid scintillator according to the present invention is a solid scintillator comprising a polycrystal containing a crystal of a Gd garnet structure oxide having a composition ratio represented by the following formula (1): [Formula 1] (M1-x-yGdxQy)3J5O12  (1) wherein M is at least one element of La and Tb, Q is at least one element of Ce and Pr, J is at least one element selected from Al, Ga, and In, x and y satisfy relations 0.5≦̸x≦̸1, and 0.000001≦̸y≦̸0.2, and further containing Si and fluorine, wherein the solid scintillator contains 1 ppm by mass to 1000 ppm by mass of the Si with respect to the Gd garnet structure oxide, and 1 ppm by mass to 100 ppm by mass of the fluorine with respect to the Gd garnet structure oxide. |
