The ECLAIRs telescope plays a key role onboard SVOM by autonomously detecting Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) in near real time in the X-/Gamma-ray energy range, and……
The gamma ray monitor (GRM) consists of a set of three detectors (GRD Gamma-Ray Detectors) operating in the 15 keV-5 MeV energy range and covering……
In response to alerts transmitted by the ECLAIRs, the Microchannel X-ray Telescope (MXT) will observe gamme ray bursts (GRBs) in the soft X-ray range (energy……
The VT telescope (Visible Telescope) is a dedicated optical tracking telescope, onboard the SVOM satellite. Its main purpose is to detect and observe the emission……
The alert network based on a French design is one of the key features of the SVOM mission enabling the near real time dissemination of……
The main science objective of the Ground-based Wide Angle Camera (GWAC) is to observe in the visible range (between 500 and 850 nm) from the……
The French Science Center will analyze the VHF alert data in an automated fashion in near real time in order to distribute the information needed……
Meeting with Alain Klotz, who presents us the TAROT telescope. Côte d’Azur observatory located in the Plateau de Calern, August 2015. Click on CC to activate……
For a mission such as SVOM, large field-of-view instruments are needed to maximise the chances of discovery. The ECLAIRs telescope is a matter of balance:……
The SVOM mission was approved following an intergovernmental agreement between France and China, specified in a memorandum of understanding in 2014. It is a cooperation……
