It is with great
sadness that we announce that our
colleague and a true friend of ITAMP,
Prof. Raymond Flannery (Ga. Tech),
passed away after a long battle with
cancer on Thursday, May 2, 2013. He was
associated with ITAMP from the very
beginning and served on its advisory
board. He will be missed by us and the
AMO physics community.
