论文摘要
SVOM卫星将于2024年初推出，主要致力于对伽马射线爆发和其他高能瞬变的多波长观察。由于其板载微通道X射线望远镜和可见频段望远镜，它也非常适合引力波事件的电磁随访。我们讨论了Ligo-Virgo-Kagra提供的引力触发候选的SVOM快速后续策略。特别是，我们利用适合重力波检测器地平线的星系目录的最新发展，以优化对应物发现的机会。我们还考虑了特定于SVOM平台的约束。最后，我们在重力波警报后实施了SVOM观察计划的生产，并量化了本工作中引入的几种优化的效率。
The SVOM satellite, to be launched in early 2024, is primarily devoted to the multi-wavelength observation of gamma-ray bursts and other higher-energy transients. Thanks to its onboard Microchannel X-ray Telescope and Visible-band Telescope, it is also very well adapted to the electromagnetic follow-up of gravitational wave events. We discuss the SVOM rapid follow-up strategy for gravitational wave trigger candidates provided by LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA. In particular, we make use of recent developments of galaxy catalogs adapted to the horizon of gravitational wave detectors to optimise the chance of counterpart discovery. We also take into account constraints specific to the SVOM platform. Finally, we implement the production of the SVOM observation plan following a gravitational wave alert and quantify the efficiency of several optimisations introduced in this work.
