In recent years, a new generation of space missions offered great opportunities of discovery in high-energy astrophysics. In this article we focus on the scientific operations of the Gamma-Ray Imaging Detector (GRID) onboard the AGILE space mission. The AGILE-GRID, sensitive in the energy range of 30 MeV-30 GeV, has detected many gamma-ray transients of galactic and extragalactic origins. This work presents the AGILE innovative approach to fast gamma-ray transient detection, which is a challenging task and a crucial part of the AGILE scientific program. The goals are to describe: (1) the AGILE Gamma-Ray Alert System, (2) a new algorithm for blind search identification of transients within a short processing time, (3) the AGILE procedure for gamma-ray transient alert management, and (4) the likelihood of ratio tests that are necessary to evaluate the post-trial statistical significance of the results. Special algorithms and an optimized sequence of tasks are necessary to reach our goal. Data are automatically analyzed at every orbital downlink by an alert pipeline operating on different timescales. As proper flux thresholds are exceeded, alerts are automatically generated and sent as SMS messages to cellular telephones, e-mails, and push notifications of an application for smartphones and tablets. These alerts are crosschecked with the results of two pipelines, and a manual analysis is performed. Being a small scientific-class mission, AGILE is characterized by optimization of both scientific analysis and ground-segment resources. The system is capable of generating alerts within two to three hours of a data downlink, an unprecedented reaction time in gamma-ray astrophysics.

我们介绍了4 Pi Sky 'hub',这是一个开放式数据服务和底层软件包的集合,用于快速,全自动报告和响应天文瞬时警报。这些包建立在成熟的“VOEvent”标准化消息格式之上,旨在提供一个分散和开放的基础设施来处理瞬时警报。特别是我们提请注意voeventdb的初始版本,这是一个存档和远程查询服务,允许天文学家对瞬时警报进行历史查询。通过使用空间过滤器和引文网络查找,voeventdb能够交叉匹配瞬时警报,将多个来源的数据汇集在一起,并在规划新的后续活动时提供参考点。我们还强调了最近从ASASSN和GAIA项目添加到我们的VOEvent分发流的光学瞬态馈送。实现这些服务的源代码和部署脚本都是免费提供的,并得到许可,目的是其他团队可以使用它们来实现本地或特定于项目的VOEvent存档。在描述这些软件包的过程中,我们提供了一个基本的入门知识,包括对VOEvent标准的简要介绍。

Preliminary Results of a New Deep Learning Method to Detect and Localize GRBs in the AGILE/GRID Sky Maps
AGILE是意大利航天局于2007年发射的一项空间飞行任务,目的是研究能量范围从$\sim20$ keV到$\sim10$ GeV的X射线和伽马射线现象。AGILE团队开发了一个实时分析管道,用于快速检测瞬态源,并跟踪通过通用坐标网络等网络收到的外部科学警报。我们开发了一种新的深度学习方法,用于检测和定位AGILE/GRID天空地图中的伽马射线暴(GRB)。我们使用带有GRB的天空地图训练模型,该地图在距离地图中心20度的半径内模拟,这大于GRBWeb目录中存在的99.5%的误差区域。我们还计划将这种方法应用于寻找引力波事件的对应物,这些事件通常具有更宽的定位误差区域。该方法包括两个深度学习模型,使用两个卷积神经网络实现。第一个模型检测和过滤包含伽玛射线暴的天空地图,而第二个模型定位其位置。我们使用模拟数据训练和测试模型。检测模型的准确率达到95.7%,定位模型的平均误差小于0.8度。我们配置了一个Docker容器,其中包含数据模拟所需的所有软件,并使用Amazon Web Service进行部署,以计算不同条件下的p值分布。通过p值分布,我们可以计算检测的统计显著性。

Fink, a new generation of broker for the LSST community
Fink是一个经纪人,旨在使科学与大型时域警报流,如即将到来的Vera C。Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time(鲁宾天文台时空遗产巡天)它展示了传统的天文学代理功能,例如自动摄取,注释,选择和重新分配瞬变科学的有前途的警报。它还旨在通过提供实时瞬态分类来超越传统的经纪人功能,并通过使用最先进的深度学习和自适应学习技术不断改进。这些不断发展的附加值将使LSST光度数据在各种科学案例中的科学输出更加准确,同时也会导致伴随调查演变的新发现的发生率更高。在本文中,我们介绍Fink,它的科学动机,架构和当前状态,包括使用Zwicky Transient Facility警报流的第一个科学验证案例。
