Spectral Evolutions in Gamma-Ray Burst Exponential Decays Observed with Suzaku WAM

Makoto S. Tashiro, Kaori Onda, Kazutaka Yamaoka +4

This paper presents a study on the spectral evolution of gamma-ray burst (GRB) prompt emissions observed with the Suzaku Wide-band All-sky Monitor (WAM). By making use of the WAM d…

Spectral Cross-calibration of the Konus-Wind, the Suzaku/WAM, and the Swift/BAT Data using Gamma-Ray Bursts

T. Sakamoto, V. Pal'shin, K. Yamaoka +20

We report on the spectral cross-calibration results of the Konus-Wind, the Suzaku/WAM, and the Swift/BAT instruments using simultaneously observed gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). This is…

Testing the Epeak - Eiso relation for GRBs detected by Swift and Suzaku-WAM

H. A. Krimm, K. Yamaoka, S. Sugita +12

One of the most prominent, yet controversial associations derived from the ensemble of prompt-phase observations of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is the apparent correlation in the sourc…

Status of GRB Observations with the Suzaku Wideband All-sky Monitor

M. S. Tashiro, Y. Terada, Y. Urata +28

The Wide-band All-sky Monitor (WAM) is a function of the large lateral BGO shield of the Hard X-ray Detector (HXD) onboard Suzaku. Its large geometrical area of 800 cm^2 per side,…

Spectral Properties of Prompt Emission of Four Short Gamma-Ray Bursts Observed by the Suzaku-WAM and the Konus-Wind

Masanori Ohno, Yasushi Fukazawa, Takuya Takahashi +16

We have performed a joint analysis of prompt emission from four bright short gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with the Suzaku-WAM and the Konus-Wind experiments. This joint analysis allows…
