A new interstellar triplet of microwave lines has been discovered at 93.174 GHz. The relative intensities and frequencies of the triplet indicate a J equals 1 to zero transition of a molecule containing an atom with nuclear spin of 1, very likely nitrogen, occupying an 'outboard' position in the molecule. Based on these clues, Green et al. (1974) suggest N2H(+) as an identification. The molecule is widespread in the Galaxy but appears to have rather lower abundance than H2CO, CS, and NH3.
