- Online-only posters can only be applied for by online participants.
- Each participant is entitled to a maximum of 2 talk and 2 poster abstract submissions.
- There is a limit of 1 accepted oral contribution (invited or contributed) and 2 accepted posters per participant as main author.

Important Information
We do not send emails to book your accommodation. If you receive such an email, this is a scam!
Payment confirmation
You will receive written confirmation of your payment and the successful registration via email. This might take a few hours or days. Please carefully check your inbox to make sure you received both emails.
Should you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact us tasc9-kasc16@ista.ac.at
Invoice and receipt
While we do accommodate payments (bank transfer) via invoice in very special cases, we encourage the use of credit card payments for smoother processing. If possible, we kindly ask that you consider this option.
However, if you already registered, unfortunately we cannot issue invoices retroactively, only prior to the payment. You can download your order confirmation after a successful registration.
Student registration waiver
A few registration fee waivers sponsored by the White Dwarf Research Corporation (WDRC) for on-site participation are available for students. Award of a waiver is conditional on the student presenting a result (poster or talk) at the conference. To apply, please fill out the application form, even if you have already indicated interest in the registration form.
25 April 2025: Deadline for student registration waiver applications.
