Abstract: |
We describe a practical method for searching for spatial and temporal coincidence of the Fermi-LAT exposure maps over a gravitational-wave sky localization. The method provides in output the overlap region between multi-frequency sky areas within a proper time window selected by the user. This approach offers a prompt setting of the observational strategies for searching for potential electromagnetic candidates as well as for a fast cross-matching between the LAT and the LIGO, Virgo and KAGRA databases for dedicated post-processing analysis. The tasks are performed using the encoded standard method named Multi Order Coverage Map and visualized in the Aladin Desktop. |
