Distributed alert system enhances real-time response.
System demonstrates reliable performance in initial operational period.
Abstract
The AGILE Science Alert System has been developed to provide prompt processing of science data for detection and alerts on gamma-ray galactic and extra galactic transients, gamma-ray bursts, X-ray bursts and other transients in the hard X-rays. The system is distributed among the AGILE Data Center (ADC) of the Italian Space Agency (ASI), Frascati (Italy), and the AGILE Team Quick Look sites, located at INAF/IASF Bologna and INAF/IASF Roma. We present the Alert System architecture and performances in the first 2 years of operation of the AGILE payload.
