Prompt emission with Suzaku
(1)Spectral parameter distribution - true distribution of E peak - differences between long and short GRBs (2) Time variability of GRB spectrum - PL relation in the Flux vs E peak ? a key for the emission mechanism e.g., Ryde & Petrosian (2002), Yonetoku(yonetoku et al. 2003), Liang (Liang et al. 2004) relation (3) MeV emission ? - extra component ? (IC or hadronic?) Kaneko et al E peak ~300 keV IC ? proton component ? Energy (keV) GRB (Gonzaretz et al. 2003) BATSE E peak distribution νF ν Prompt emission mechanism of GRBs is still mysterious.... Wide energy coverage and large effective area of the WAM could answer for these questions. Prompt emission with Suzaku

Prompt emission with Suzaku Most part of time-resolved E peak follows E peak ∝ L iso 0.5 Rising phase of each pulse tend to be outlier with higher E peak indicates different Γ and/or emission site during pulse phase e.g., E peak ~ ε B ε e r -1 L 0.5 (synchrotron;Zhang&Meszaros 2002) ~ Γ 0.5 r -0.5 L 0.25 (photosphere; Ioka et al. 2007) Time-resolved spectra as a new probe for the Fireball dynamics GRB ( Ohno et al. 2009) GRB (Nakagawa et al. in prep) L iso (10 52 erg s -1 ) E p,s (keV) L iso (10 52 erg s -1 ) E p,s (MeV)

BAT Konus-Wind WAM Swift-BAT Prompt emission with Suzaku WAM detected very high-z (z=6.3) GRB and the WAM gives a tighter constraint on the spectral parameters (Sugita et al. 2009) GRB also satisfies the Amati relation Dusty environment (n=670cm -2 ) is required to satisfy the Ghirlanda relation.

X-ray afterglow with Suzaku
(1) Spectral change in early break of X-ray afterglow (2) Emission lines in the X-ray afterglow Nousek et al. very steepshallowclassical We try to provide the existence of continuous energy injection with broad band spectroscopy (XIS+HXD). Energy injection ? transition from hard to soft … ? Using the Suzaku-XIS to detect the emission lines, we try to CLOSE this chaotic issue. Prominent iron emission line/edge is independently reported. XMM-Newton shows emission lines of light element, and no iron line. Almost all X-ray afterglows show NO emission lines… X-ray afterglow with Suzaku

We performed 3 ToO observations with Suzaku. GRB GRB060904A GRB (3.3 hrs) (9.4 hrs) (5.3 hrs) We have not detected the hard X-ray emission 3 hrs We have to start the follow-up observation within 3 hours at least to detect the hard X-ray emission with the HXD. X-ray afterglow with Suzaku
Suzaku can observe both prompt emission and X-ray afterglow of GRBs Prompt emission = Wide-band All-sky Monitor (WAM) GRB detection rate of 140 per year Board winds in the higher (and lower) energy band in E peak distribution Time-resolved E p -L iso is also follow E p – L iso 0.5 but some outliers, reflecting a fireball dynamics. The spectral properties of short and long GRBs are different, indicating a different origin X-ray afterglow = Suzaku XIS and HXD 3 ToO observations have been performed No hard X-ray emission and No emission lines but tighter upper limit Need quick observations within 3hrs The Suzaku conference at Otaru Hokkaido, Japan 29 June - 2 July
