A new electronic transition of molybdenum monoxide, MoO, was observed near 6735 cm-1. This transition is tentatively assigned as the (0,1) band of the A3?2 - X3?3 transition. PGOPHER is used analyze the line positions observed in the spectrum. MoO molecules were produced in a Mo-lined hollow cathode sputter source, and the spectrum was recorded in emission using the high resolution spectrometer associated with the McMath-Pierce Solar telescope at Kitt Peak, AZ. Results of the analysis will be presented.
