ECLAIRs: the SVOM high-energy transient trigger camera

The core instrument of the SVOM Gamma-ray burst mission launched in June 2024 is the 4-150 keV 2-D coded mask camera ECLAIRs responsible for the autonomous trigger and localization of transient events within its field of view. The flight model of ECLAIRs has been built by several French labs (IRAP, CEA, APC) under the supervision of the French Space Agency (CNES), while APC, LUPM and IAP built a suite of data reduction and analysis software. This paper outlines the main science goals of ECLAIRs and describes the different instrument sub-systems and their main characteristics. The paper then discusses the instrument configuration and operation as well as the main in-flight measured performances. Finally, the paper summarizes the science performance of ECLAIRs up to March 31, 2025.

The GRB joint scientific analysis pipeline of the ECLAIRs and GRM instruments on board SVOM

The study of the prompt high-energy emission of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) with SVOM relies on the observations performed by ECLAIRs (4-150 keV) and the Gamma-Ray Monitor (GRM, 0.015-5 MeV), the two wide field-of-view instruments on board the satellite. In this article, we introduce the eclgrm pipelines running at the French Science Center of SVOM, which combine the ECLAIRs and GRM data to generate scientific data products describing the GRB broad-band temporal and spectral properties. The architecture of the pipelines is presented, as well as their activation following each onboard trigger, and their workflow. The statistical data analysis methods employed by the pipelines are described, along with the scientific data products that are created in real time or from the full event data. We also present the eclgrm-ui user interface which allows the scientists on shift to monitor the automated data processings in the pipelines, and to optimize the analysis results interactively.
