Prompt rays induced by thermal neutron capture on a 107 Pd sample were analyzed to obtain the thermal neutron capture cross section for this nuclide. Intensities of prompt-ray transitions feeding the ground state were summed to determine a lower limit of 9:16 AE 0:27 b for the thermal neutron capture cross section. There have been no experimental values for this cross section. Our measured value is five times larger than evaluations of this cross section, which are based on resonance parameter data.
