摘要:

我们正在将费米伽马射线暴监测器(GBM)集成到伽马射线暴(GRB)探测器的行星际网络(IPN)中。使用GBM,IPN将包括9个实验。这将1)帮助费米团队理解和减少他们的系统定位不确定性,2)将GBM和大面积望远镜(LAT)误差圆的大小减少1至4个数量级,3)促进GRB源与地面和空间观测站在其他波长发现的物体的识别,从无线电到非常高能量的伽马射线,4)减少将一些高能光子的LAT探测与GBM爆发相关联的不确定性,以及5)促进对非电磁GRB对应物的搜索,特别是中微子和引力辐射。我们提出的例子,并证明费米和IPN之间的协同作用。这是一个费米循环2客座研究员项目。

英文摘要:

We are integrating the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor (GBM) into the Interplanetary Network (IPN) of Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) detectors. With the GBM, the IPN will comprise 9 experiments. This will 1) assist the Fermi team in understanding and reducing their systematic localization uncertainties, 2) reduce the sizes of the GBM and Large Area Telescope (LAT) error circles by 1 to 4 orders of magnitude, 3) facilitate the identification of GRB sources with objects found by ground- and space-based observatories at other wavelengths, from the radio to very high energy gamma-rays, 4) reduce the uncertainties in associating some LAT detections of high energy photons with GBM bursts, and 5) facilitate searches for non-electromagnetic GRB counterparts, particularly neutrinos and gravitational radiation. We present examples and demonstrate the synergy between Fermi and the IPN. This is a Fermi Cycle 2 Guest Investigator project.
