The emitter of these bands has long been in doubt Charton and Gaydon, 1956 Pearse and Gaydon, 1976; in flames, and in arcs in water vapour, strong bands attributed to SrOH ocur in the same regions Lagerqvist and Huldt, 1955 Huldt and Lagerqvist, 1956. The bands have recently been observed in dry Sr + N₂O + CO (or N₂) flames, both in emission and in absorption Benard, Slafer, et al., 1977 Eckstrom, Barker, et al., 1977 missing citation*, and have tentatively been attributed to the transitions ³Δ ↔ a ³Π and ¹Δ, ¹Σ^- ↔ A' ¹Π or SrO.
