Abstracts & Proceedings¶

Abstracts are solicited on any and all topics of relevance and importance to the planetary science community, including, but not limited to, the following broad themes: planetary formation, atmospheres, surfaces, interiors; space environment and weather; habitability and astrobiology; exoplanets; software, data, tools, and methods; physical materials; field work and analog studies; missions, instruments, and technology; support for crewed missions and human exploration, including Artemis; funding and policy (esp. at NASA); community advocacy and professional development; education and outreach; diversity, equity, and inclusion; commercial space; and so on.

Guidelines¶

Titles should be composed of <200 characters. Abstracts should be limited to <500 words (soft cap). There is not an abstract template; abstract text will be typed into the freeform text box in the Indico submission form Excessively long abstracts may be deemed non-responsive. Authors and co-authors must list their full names and affiliations. References (if desired) may use whatever style you’d like (but please be consistent). Note that there is no lower limit on the length of an abstract. When you submit an abstract, you will be given the opportunity to request a talk, poster, either, or neither (i.e. abstract / proceedings only), or a slideshow^[1].

Submissions by early career researchers and topics of timely and emerging interest to planetary scientists will be prioritized for talk and poster slots. See information on the planned agenda for more.

There is no limit on number of abstracts that can be submitted.^[2] The first author must be the person who submits the abstract. With the exception of “abstract only” submissions, the first author of a submitted abstract must also be a registered workshop participant. When registering, please remember to provide your ORCID and self-assessed career stage.

Proceedings¶

After the workshop, authors of accepted abstracts will be invited to contribute a “proceedings” document on the topic of their accepted abstract. Detailed format requirements are TBD, but proceedings documents will have no length limit. Proceedings documents will undergo editorial review by the SOC, but they will not be peer reviewed.

AI Use Policy¶

We will follow the AI use policy of the journal Planetary Research. If you use “AI” (in any form) as part of your abstract preparation, please read and adhere to this policy.^[3]

Archiving and Discoverability¶

All accepeted abstracts and/or proceedings (regardless of whether they are selected for a talk or poster slot) will be archived in Zenodo and indexed by the Astrophysics Data System and Science Explorer.
