We present the Infra-Red Telescope (IRT), which is part of the payload of the THESEUS mission, one on the three phase A candidate missions for the M7 slot of ESA (launch date 2037)…
Design and in-orbit calibration of the MXT optics
Charly Feldman, James Pearson, Gillian Butcher +6
The Microchannel X-ray Telescope (MXT) is one of four instruments on the Space-based multi-band astronomical Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM) satellite mission, launched on the 22nd…
In-flight performance of the MXT Camera
M. Moita, A. Meuris, P. Ferrando +8
On-board the SVOM mission, the Microchannel X-ray Telescope observes the soft X-ray band of the gamma-ray bursts afterglows. The so-called lobster-eye optics focuses X-rays to the…
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…
SVOM/ECLAIRs detection plane: main features and performance
O. Godet, J. -L. Atteia, R. Pons +21
The detection plane of the high-energy transient camera ECLAIRs onboard SVOM is made of 200 XRDPIX detection modules, each consisting of a matrix of Schottky-type CdTe…
ECLAIRs: the SVOM high-energy transient trigger camera
O. Godet, J. -L. Atteia, S. Schanne +51
The core instrument of the SVOM Gamma-ray burst mission launched in June 2024 is the 4-150 keV 2-D coded mask camera ECLAIRs responsible for the autonomous trigger and localization…
The data analysis pipeline for the Microchannel X-ray Telescope on board the SVOM mission
P. Maggi, L. Michel, D. Gotz +10
The Space-based multi-band astronomical Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM) mission was launched in June 2024. It is a joint Sino-French collaboration designed to detect, localize, and…
The Microchannel X-ray Telescope on board the SVOM mission: in-flight scientific performance
D. Götz, S. Crepaldi, E. Doumayrou +14
The Microchannel X-ray Telescope (MXT) is a compact and lightweight focusing X-ray telescope, which is part of the space payload of the SVOM mission. The main goal of the MXT instr…
Scientific performance of on-board analyses for the SVOM X-ray telescope MXT
F. Robinet, C. Van Hove, M. Moita +8
The Microchannel X-ray Telescope on board the Space-based multi-band astronomical Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM) satellite detects and localizes the X-ray afterglow of gamma-ray b…
SVOM GRB 250314A at z 7.3: an exploding star in the era of reionization
B. Cordier, J. Y. Wei, N. R. Tanvir +103
Most long Gamma-ray bursts originate from a rare type of massive stellar explosion. Their afterglows, while rapidly fading, can be initially extremely luminous at optical/near-infr…
Spectral performance of the Microchannel X-ray Telescope on board the SVOM mission
B. Schneider, N. Renault-Tinacci, D. Götz +7
The Microchannel X-ray Telescope (MXT) is an innovative compact X-ray instrument on board the SVOM astronomical mission dedicated to the study of transient phenomena such as gamma-…
