GRINTA: a new probe of the dynamic universe

Résumé fourni par la source

Recent observations of the transient sky at all wavelengths are increasingly revealing the importance of the multi-messenger and multi-wavelength approach. The GRINTA (Gamma-Ray INternational Transient Array Observatory) mission, proposed for launch around the middle of the next decade, is conceived as a small mission with good sensitivity, excellent angular resolution and fast follow-up capability for studying transient sources at timescales from ms to hours, at the same time ensuring optimal integration with multi-messenger networks. The GRINTA mission will carry two complementary payloads to cover in total the 5 keV-10 MeV band, that will detect and localise gamma-ray bursts covering ∼ half of the sky and will be able to perform imaging surveys with sub-arcmin resolution. GRINTA will operate in synergy with the most powerful electromagnetic, gravitational wave and neutrino observatories foreseen to be operational after ∼ 2035.
