GAME: GRB and All-sky Monitor Experiment

Original language description

We describe the GRB and all-sky monitor experiment (GAME) mission submitted by a large international collaboration (Italy, Germany, Czech Republic, Slovenia, Brazil) in response to the 2012 ESA call for a small mission opportunity for a launch in 2017 and presently under further investigation for subsequent opportunities. The general scientific objective is to perform measurements of key importance for GRB science and to provide the wide astrophysical community of an advanced X-ray all-sky monitoring system. The proposed payload was based on silicon drift detectors (similar to 1-50 keV), CdZnTe (CZT) detectors (similar to 15-200 keV) and crystal scintillators in phoswich (NaI/CsI) configuration (similar to 20 keV-20MeV), three well established technologies, for a total weight of similar to 250 kg and a required power of similar to 240 W. Such instrumentation allows a unique, unprecedented and very powerful combination of large field of view (3-4 sr), a broad energy band extending from
