Gravitational wave high-energy Electromagnetic Counterpart All-sky Monitor (GECAM) is a constellation with four instruments (launch date): GECAM-A/B (10 December 2020), GECAM-C (27 July 2022) and GECAM-D (13 March 2024), which are dedicated to monitoring gamma-ray transients in all-sky. The primary science objectives of GECAM include Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs), Soft Gamma-ray Repeaters (SGRs), high energy counterparts of Gravitation Wave (GW) and Fast Radio Burst (FRB), Solar Flares (SFLs), as well as Terrestrial Gamma-ray Flashes (TGFs) and Terrestrial Electron Beams (TEBs). A series of observations and research have been made since the launch of GECAM-A/B. GECAM observations provide new insights into these high-energy transients, demonstrating the unique role of GECAM in the “multi-wavelength, multi-messenger” era.
