MoonBEAM: A Beyond Earth-orbit Gamma-ray Burst Detector for Multi-Messenger AstronomyMoonBEAM is a SmallSat concept of deploying gamma-ray detectors in cislunar space to increase gamma-ray burst detections and improve localization precision with the timing triangulation technique. Such an instrument would probe the extreme processes involved in the cosmic collision of compact objects and facilitate multi-messenger time-domain astronomy to explore the end of explore the end of stellar life cycles and black hole formation.
