The SVOM mission, its profile and its system
B. Cordier, J. Y. Wei, S. N. Zhang +37
The SVOM (Space-based Variable Objects Monitor) mission, launched into low Earth orbit on 22 June 2024, is a French-Chinese multi-wavelength observatory dedicated to the study of t…
CAGIRE: a wide-field NIR imager for the COLIBRI 1.3 meter robotic telescope
Alix Nouvel de la Flèche, Jean-Luc Atteia, Jérémie Boy +32
The use of high energy transients such as Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) as probes of the distant universe relies on the close collaboration between space and ground facilities. In this c…
The Scientific Performance of the Microchannel X-ray Telescope on board the SVOM Mission
D. Gotz, M. Boutelier, V. Burwitz +17
The Microchannel X-ray Telescope (MXT) will be the first focusing X-ray telescope based on a "Lobster-Eye" optical design to be flown on Sino-French mission SVOM. SVOM will be dedi…
The Deep and Transient Universe in the SVOM Era: New Challenges and Opportunities - Scientific prospects of the SVOM mission
J. Wei, B. Cordier, S. Antier +77
To take advantage of the astrophysical potential of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs), Chinese and French astrophysicists have engaged the SVOM mission (Space-based multi-band astronomical V…
The Microchannel X-ray Telescope on Board the SVOM Satellite
D. Gotz, C. Adami, S. Basa +18
We present the Micro-channel X-ray Telescope (MXT), a new narrow-field (about 1°) telescope that will be flying on the Sino-French SVOM mission dedicated to Gamma-Ray Burst science…
The Microchannel X-ray Telescope for the Gamma-Ray Burst mission SVOM
D. Gotz, J. Osborne, B. Cordier +17
We present the Microchannel X-ray Telescope, a new light and compact focussing telescope that will be flying on the Sino-French SVOM mission dedicated to Gamma-Ray Burst science. T…
The X-/Gamma-ray camera ECLAIRs for the Gammay-ray burst mission SVOM
O. Godet, G. Nasser, J. -L. Atteia +21
We present ECLAIRs, the Gamma-ray burst (GRB) trigger camera to fly on-board the Chinese-French mission SVOM. ECLAIRs is a wide-field (\,sr) coded mask camera with a mask t…
Design Concepts for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
The CTA Consortium
Ground-based gamma-ray astronomy has had a major breakthrough with the impressive results obtained using systems of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes. Ground-based gamma-ray…
The Wide-Field X and Gamma-Ray Telescope ECLAIRs aboard the Gamma-Ray Burst Multi-Wavelength Space Mission SVOM
P. Mandrou, S. Schanne, B. Cordier +10
The X and Gamma-ray telescope ECLAIRs is foreseen to be launched on a low Earth orbit (h=630 km, i=30 degrees) aboard the SVOM satellite (Space-based multi-band astronomical Variab…
