Bound-bound absolute radiative transition probabilities for $\mathrm{<mrow\; data-mjx-texclass="ORD">7</mrow>}LiH(A1\Sigma +-X1\Sigma +)$ bands Including even the high-lying vibrational levels ($0\ge v\prime \prime \ge 26,0\ge v\prime \prime \ge 23$) have been reported $recently1,2$. Using the same potential curves and electronic dipole strength function we have extended our calculations to Include bound-continuum radiative transition probabilities. The behavior of the broad oscillatory intensity distribution for the bound-free transitions will be examined; particular Emphasis will be placed on the change from bound-bound to bound-free emission. Similar calculations on other diatomics are in progress. Our most recent results will be briefly summarized.
