Multimessenger events like gravitational waves (GW), gamma-ray bursts (GRB), high-energy neutrinos, etc. offer unique opportunities for astroparticle physics. While carrying extremely useful information, searches for associated electromagnetic emissions are challenging due to large sky localization uncertainties provided by the current generation of observatories. Tilepy is a Pytoh library dedicated to optimizing the follow-up of poorly localized events and provides access to methods and procedures dedicated to scheduling observations of multi-messenger events.
Main technical characteristics
- Tilepy can be used with ground-based, space-based or multiple observatories at once.
- It provides access to 2-dimensional or 3-dimensional tiling strategies
- The code is open source
