The Space Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM) is a planned small X-ray telescope satellite under development by China National Space Administration (CNSA) and the French Space Agency (CNES), to be launched in 2021. SVOM will study the explosions of massive stars by analysing the resulting gamma-ray bursts. The light-weight X-ray mirror for SVOM weighs just .〔 SVOM will add new capabilities to the work of finding gamma-ray bursts currently being done by the multinational satellite ''Swift''.〔 Its anti-solar pointing strategy makes the Earth cross the field of view of its payload every orbit. ==Objectives== Using synergy between space and ground instruments, the mission has these scientific objectives:〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The SVOM mission, a new generation GRB mission )〕 * Permit the detection of all known types of Gamma-ray bursts * Provide fast, reliable GRB positions * Measure the broadband spectral shape of the prompt emission (from visible to MeV) * Measure the temporal properties of the prompt emission (from visible to MeV) * Quickly identify the afterglows of detected GRBs at X-ray and optical wavelengths, including those which are highly redshifted (z>6) * Measure the broadband spectral shape of the early and late afterglow (from visible to X-rays) * Measure the temporal evolution of the early and late afterglow (from visible to X-rays) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Space Variable Objects Monitor」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
