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.
