Parity nonconserving asymmetries have been measured in p-wave resonances of {sup 106}Pd and {sup 108}Pd. The data analysis requires knowledge of the neutron resonance parameters. Transmission and capture {gamma}-ray yields were measured for E{sub n}=20{endash}2000 eV with the time-of-flight method at the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE). A total of 28 resonances in {sup 106}Pd and 32 resonances in {sup 108}Pd were studied. The resonance parameters for {sup 106}Pd are new for all except one resonance. In {sup 108}Pd six new resonances were observed and the precision improved for many of the resonance parameters. A Bayesian analysis was used to assign orbital angular momentum for the resonances studied. {copyright} {ital 1998} {ital The American Physical Society}
