The BRICS-AGAC Symposium
Considering that notable progress that have been made in the studies of gravitation, astrophysics, and cosmology among BRICS countries in the past decades, the BRICS Association on Gravity, Astrophysics, and Cosmology (BRICS-AGAC) was established at the end of 2016 to promote further collaborations between the member countries. This year, the BRICS-AGAC Symposium will come back to its founding place, Hangzhou.
Welcome to the 6th Symposium of the BRICS Association on Gravity, Astrophysics, and Cosmology (BRICS-AGAC Symposium 2026), to be held on November 6th-10th, 2026, near the West Lake in Zhejiang Hotel, Hangzhou city, Zhejiang Province, China. This symposium continues the tradition of fostering collaboration and sharing cutting-edge research among scientists from BRICS nations and around the globe.
The registration fee for each participant is 2000 CNY (including conference materials, participation in all sessions, coffee breaks, meals, and banquet). We will arrange the accommodations in the Zhejiang Hotel, and the accommodation fee will be paid by the participant.
