Saturation magnetization measurements of Ni‐Pd alloys show for a Pd concentration range , 0–50 at. %, a linear decrease of the mean atomic moment according to , with . The extrapolated moment for Pd is . Ferromagnetic resonance measurements at 35 GHz show a hyperbolic increase of the factor with Pd addition. The calculated spin moments vary linearly as , indicating 0.39 hole in the 4d band of Pd. The factor of Pd would be 2.58, indicating a non‐negligible orbital contribution.
