Four types of astrochemically relevant radiative processes are studied: bound-bound, bound-free, free-bound and free-free. The former two together determine radiative lifetimes, which are calculated for the HeLi+ molecular ion. Free-bound processes, also called radiative association, are studied on two systems: He in collisions with Li+ , and O in collision with C+. Collisions of He and Li+ are believed to have occurred during the recombination era of the Universe, while collisions of O with C+ are considered to be relevant in SN 1987A. Altogether, 17 radiative association cross sections and rate coefficients are calculated for radiative association, and the effect of a stimulated emission is also illustrated. A free-free process, also called radiative charge transfer, is studied in collisions of He with Li+.
