The conference welcomes contributions in the field of meteor science and closely related topics.
We particularly encourage presentations by amateur astronomers; both at beginner and advanced level!
Contributions by professional astronomers are also highly appreciated.
We suggest the following (non-exhaustive) list of topics:
Visual observations
- Observing campaigns: results and future plans
- Meteor shower analyses from visual data
- Results from the 2009 Leonids outburst
Video & photographic observations
- Observing campaigns: results and future plans
- Instrumentation and software
- Obtaining meteoroid flux from video counts
- Evaluation of algorithms for automated astrometry
- Telescopic observations
Radio observations
- Instrumentation and software
- Obtaining meteoroid flux from forward scatter counts
Fireball observations
- Collecting observations from the public
- Meteorite recovery
Trajectory & orbit determination
- Results from double-station campaigns
- Comparison of trajectory determination algorithms
Stream modelling
- Predictions for future meteor showers
- Observing requirements for testing theoretical models
Parent bodies
- Parent body observations
- Parent body dynamics & fragmentation
Extraterrestrial meteors
- Observing lunar impact flashes
- Meteors in atmospheres of other planets
- Observing meteors from space
