Transient detection capabilities of small satellite gamma-ray detectors

Abstract

The new, small satellite-based gamma-ray detectors, like Cubesats Applied for MEasuring and Localizing Transients, will provide a new wa to detect gamma transients in the multimessenger era. The efficiency an the detection capabilities of such a system will be compared wit current missions, for example, Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM). W used the Fermi GBM's observed short gamma-ray burst light curve aggregated from observed discrete detector event for the simulatio input. The corresponding direction-dependent detector response matrice were used to generate photon counts and light curves around a simulate event, enabling to determine the statistics. This method can be used i the future for trigger algorithm and detector system development, an also to estimate the efficiency of the data analysis pipeline regardin the observable gamma-ray bursts' parameters as well as othe electromagnetic transients
