The formyl radical, HCO, has been detected in interstellar molecular clouds through its N/sub K//sub -//sub K//sub +/=1/sub 01/-0/sub 00/, J=3/2-1/2, F=2-1transition. The detection of this molecule apparently is consistent with extensions of ion-molecule formation theory which deal with moderately dense interstellar clouds where both ionized carbon and carbon monoxide exist. Estimates for the ratios of column densities of HCO to HCO/sup +/ are given for four molecular clouds. (AIP)
