- 5. A silver halide photographic material according to claim 2, wherein the core of said silver halide grains having a core/shell structure has a silver halide composition containing 3 to 40 mol% of silver iodide and the shell has a silver halide composition containing 0 to 10 mol% of silver iodide.
- 6. A silver halide photographic material according to claim 6, wherein the shell of said silver halide grains having a core/shell structure has a thickness of 0.01 to 0.3 .mu.m.
- 7. A silver halide photograhic material according to claim 1, wherein said silver halide grains are those obtained in the presence of at least one compound selected from the group consisting of compounds represented by the following formulas (IT), (IIT),(IIIT) and (IVT) and compounds having a recurring unit represented by the following formula (VT): ##STR23## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 which may be the same or different each represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, an amino group, an amino group derivative, an alkyl group, an alkyl group derivative, an aryl group, an aryl group derivative, a cycloalkyl group, a cycloalkyl group derivative, a mercapto group derivative, or --CONH--R.sub.4 (where R.sub.4 is a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, an amino group, an alkyl group derivative, an amino group derivative, a halogen atom, a cycloalkyl group, a cycloalkyl group derivative, an aryl group or an aryl group derivative); R.sub.5 represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group; R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 may cooperate to form a ring; X represents a monovalent group obtained by eliminating one hydrogen atom from the compound of formula (IT), (IIT), (IIIT) or (IVT); and J represents a divalent linkage.
- 8. A silver halide photographic material according to claim 1, wherein said silver halide grains are monodispersed silver halide grains.
- 9. A silver halide photographic material according to claim 8, wherein said monodispersed silver halide grains have such a size distribution that the value of S/r, where S is the standard deviation of the size distribution and r is the arithmetic mean of sizes, is 0.20 or below.
- 10. A silver halide photographic material according to claim 9, wherein said monodispersed silver halide grains have such a size distribution that the value of S/r is 0.15 or below.
