Description
The Einstein Probe (EP) is a small mission dedicated to time-domain astronomy in the soft X-ray band. Its primary scientific goals are concerned with discovering transients of particular interest, including tidal disruption events (TDEs), supernova shock breakouts (SN SBOs), and electromagnetic counterparts of gravitational wave (GW) events. In this report, on behalf of the EP team, I will give an introduction on the prospects of detecting these transients with the EP, including observation strategies and forecast of the detection rate.
