We report on the low-temperature hydrogen implantation and subsequent investigation of superconductivity for dilute alloys of Mn in palladium. A simple Abrikosov-Gorkov-type pair breaking is observed. Our resistivity determination of Tc is compared with an existing study in which hydrogen charging was carried out electrolytically and partial superconductivity, as resolved by susceptibility measurements, persisted to larger manganese concentrations.
