Dear Colleagues,

We are delighted to invite you to the 15th Asteroids, Comets, Meteors (ACM) Conference, scheduled to take place from July 6 to July 10, 2026, in the historic city of Poznań, Poland. This premier international gathering brings together scientists, researchers, and students dedicated to the study of small Solar System bodies.

The ACM Conference series, inaugurated in 1983 in Uppsala, Sweden, serves as a vital forum for the exchange of knowledge on asteroids, comets, meteors, trans-Neptunian objects, and related topics. Held triennially, the conference has traversed the globe, with the most recent edition in Flagstaff, Arizona, USA (2023). In 2026, we are excited to continue this tradition in Poznań, a city renowned for its rich cultural heritage and vibrant academic community.

As a community-organized conference, ACM thrives on the active involvement of researchers at all career stages. The upcoming conference will feature a blend of invited and contributed presentations, poster sessions, parallel and plenary sessions. We encourage researchers from around the world to participate and contribute to the scientific program.

Details regarding abstract submissions, registration, accommodation, and social events will be made available on the official conference website in due course.

We look forward to welcoming you to Poznań in July 2026.

 

Sincerely,
The ACM 2026 Organizing Committee
