Nakazawa, K. Makishima (Univ. of Tokyo), S. Hong (Nihon U.), on behalf of the Suzaku WAM team, report: The long GRB 100503A (Fermi/GBM trigger #294585485; Tierney et al., GCN 10714) triggered the Suzaku Wide-band All-sky Monitor (WAM) which covers an energy of 50 keV - 5 MeV at 2010-05-03 13:18:51.17 UT (T=0). The observed light curve shows a multi-peaked structure lasting from T0-51s to T0+89s with T90 of about 103 seconds. The fluence in 100 - 1000 keV was 8.56 (-2.58, +2.10)x10^-6 erg/cm^2. The 1-s peak flux measured from T0-1s was 1.23 (-0.27, +0.24) photons/cm^2/s in the same energy range. Preliminary result shows that the time-averaged spectrum from T0-51s to T0+89s is well fitted by a single power-law with a photon index of 2.04 (-0.29, +0.36) (chi^2/d.o.f = 11.1/11). All the quoted errors are at statistical 90% confidence level, in which the systematic uncertainties are not included.
