High Accuracy Atomic Physics In Astronomy
Workshop organized by Anil Pradhan and
Sultana Nahar, sponsored by the Institute of
Theoretical Atomic and Molecular Astrophysics (ITAMP) at the
Harvard-Smithsonian
Center for Astrophysics, Cambridge (MA), jointly with the Iron Project,
in
honor of Michael J. Seaton, Professor Emeritus, University College
London, London, UK, for
monumental contributions to atomic physics and astrophysics and as
founder of the Opacity Project, the forerunner of the Iron Project.
Seaton passed
away in May 2007; his last paper "Updated Opacity Project radiative
accelerations" appeared after his death
in August 2007 (Mon. Not. R. Astron. Soc., 382, 245). Obituary:
"Michael
J. Seaton", by Anil Pradhan and Sultana Nahar, Bulletin of American
