A magnetic material includes magnetic particles. When a magnetic particle is rotated by 360/n degrees (n is an any integer equal to or greater than 2) around a gravity center position of the particle in a planar region, an area of the particle after the rotation overlaps with an area of the particle before the rotation by 90% or more. In the planar region, gravity center positions of from nine to eleven particles are present on a band portion in a rectangular shape. For the particles in the planar region, when a number-based 50% cumulative frequency distribution of maximum lengths in a direction passing through respective gravity center positions is defined as α, a 10% cumulative frequency distribution is equal to or greater than 0.9α, and a 90% cumulative frequency distribution is equal to or less than 1.1α. A surface of the particle is covered with an insulating film.

A core component is made of a sintered body of an inorganic powder, in which the core component includes a columnar winding portion around which a conductive wire is wound, the columnar winding portion having a first axial end and a second axial end and a flange portion integrally formed with the winding portion at both axial ends of the winding portion, in which the columnar winding portion includes, in a cross section orthogonal to an axial center, a first region having a curved outer peripheral surface having a first radius of curvature and a second region having a curved surface having a second radius of curvature, the second radius of curvature is smaller than the first radius of curvature and the first region and the second region are connected with each other via a first projection.

A reactor includes a coil having a winding portion, and a magnetic core including a core piece having an inner core portion disposed inside the winding portion. The core piece is a compact made of a composite material that contains a magnetic powder and a resin. The reactor further includes: a first projection that is integrated with and projects from an outer peripheral face of the inner core portion, and comes into contact with an inner peripheral face of the winding portion so as to position the winding portion in a diameter direction of the winding portion, and a second projection that is integrated with and projects from the core piece at a position opposing an end face of the winding portion, and comes into contact with the end face of the winding portion so as to position the winding portion in an axial direction thereof.
