===== On the Detection of Nitrogen Sulfide, NS, in Space =====

The two Λ components of the //J// = 5/2 – 3/2 pertaining to the lower energy Π<sub>1/2</sub> ladder were detected with the NRAO 11 m telescope between 115 and 116 GHz toward Sgr B2(OH) by:\\
C. A. Gottlieb, J. A. Ball, E. W. Gottlieb, C. J. Lada, and H. Penfield,\\
**[[https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1975ApJ...200L.147G|Detection of Interstellar Nitrogen Sulfide]]**\\
//Astrophys. J.// **200**, L147–L149 (1975).\\
The features displayed partially resolved hyperfine structure. The molecules was also detected in this and other transitions toward several other hot cores.

NS was also observed in TMC-1 and L134 by:\\
D. McGonagle, W. M. Irvine, and M. Ohishi,\\

//Astrophys. J.// **422**, 621–625 (1994).

It has been detected in a planetary nebula:\\
C. Sánchez Contreras, V. Bujarrabal, R. Neri, and J. Alcolea,\\

//Astron. Astrophys.// **357**, 651–660 (2000).

NS occurs in PDRs as well:\\
S. Leurini, R. Rolffs, S. Thorwirth, B. Parise, P. Schilke, C. Comito, F. Wyrowski, R. Güsten, P. Bergman, K. M. Menten, and L.-Å. Nyman,\\

N<sup>34</sup>S has been identified tentative in Sgr B2(OH) by:\\
B. E. Turner,\\
