Using accurate hybrid potential curves and an ab initio transition moment function, we have calculated absolute radiative transition probabilities for most $(v\prime \le 70,v\prime \prime \le 40)$ vibrational levels in the $A1\Sigma u+⟷X1\Sigma g+$ bands of $\mathrm{<mrow\; data-mjx-texclass="ORD">7</mrow>}Li2$. We are presently modifying our computer programs to calculate the transition probabilities for the remaining vibrational levels (up to $v\prime \approx 115!)$. We shall relate these calculations to our current experimental plans for observation of the highest vibrational levels in the $X1\Sigma g+$ and $A1\Sigma u+$ states.
