Five-year in-orbit background of Insight-HXMT
Jin-Yuan Liao, Shu Zhang, Juan Zhang +24
Purpose: We present the five-year in-orbit background evolution of Insight-HXMT since the launch, as well as the effects of the background model in data analysis. Methods: The back…
CATCH: Chasing All Transients Constellation Hunters Space Mission
Panping Li, Qian-Qing Yin, Zhengwei Li +34
In time-domain astronomy, a substantial number of transients will be discovered by multi-wavelength and multi-messenger observatories, posing a great challenge for follow-up capabi…
The In-Flight Realtime Trigger and Localization Software of GECAM
Xiao-Yun Zhao, Shao-Lin Xiong, Xiang-Yang Wen +86
Realtime trigger and localization of bursts are the key functions of GECAM, which is an all-sky gamma-ray monitor launched in Dec 10, 2020. We developed a multifunctional trigger a…
Estimate of the Background and Sensitivity of theFollow-up X-ray Telescope onboard Einstein Probe
Juan Zhang, Liqiang Qi, Yanji Yang +15
As a space X-ray imaging mission dedicated to time-domain astrophysics, the Einstein Probe (EP) carries two kinds of scientific payloads, the wide-field X-ray telescope (WXT) and t…
Comparison of simulated backgrounds with in-orbit observations for HE, ME and LE onboard Insight-HXMT
Juan Zhang, Xiaobo Li, Mingyu Ge +10
Insight-HXMT, the first X-ray astronomical satellite in China, aims to reveal new sources in the Galaxy and to study fundamental physics of X-ray binaries from 1\,keV to 250\,keV.…
Background Model for the High-Energy Telescope of Insight-HXMT
