Nakagawa, T. Tamagawa (RIKEN), S. Hong (Nihon U.), S. Sugita (Nagoya U.), N. Vasquez (Tokyo Tech.), on behalf of the Suzaku WAM team, report: The long GRB 090929B (Swift-BAT trigger #371050; Pagani et al., GCN 9963, Krimm et al. GCN 9979) was detected by the Suzaku Wide-band All-sky Monitor (WAM) which covers an energy range of 50 keV - 5 MeV at 10:09:23.633 UT (=T0). The observed light curve shows a multi-peaked structure, starting at T0-2 s and ending at T0+20 s, with a total duration (T90) of about 18 s. The fluence in 100 - 1000 keV was (3.92 ± 0.63) x 10-6 erg/cm2. The 1-s peak flux measured from T0+1 s was 1.42 (-0.25. +0.24) photons/cm2/s in the same energy range. Preliminary result shows that the time-averaged spectrum from T0-2 s to T0+20 s is well fitted by a single power-law with a photon index of 1.96 (-0.17, +0.20) (chi2/d.o.f = 23.4/27). All the quoted errors are at statistical 90% confidence level, in which the systematic uncertainties are not included.
