TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 6616 SUBJECT: GRB 070704: Suzaku/WAM observation of the prompt emission DATE: 07/07/10 11:39:17 GMT FROM: Masanori Ohno at Hiroshima U C. Kira, M. Ohno, T. Uehara, T.

Tamagawa, Y. Terada (RIKEN), and Suzaku WAM team report: The long burst, GRB 070704 (Swift/BAT trigger #283791; T. Sakamoto et al., GCN Circ. 6594; A. Melandri et al., GCN Circ. 6602; S. Karpov et al., GCN Circ.6603) was triggered at T0=2007-07-04 20:05:02 UT by Suzaku Wide-band All-sky Monitor (WAM) which covers the energy range of 50 keV - 5 MeV. The observed light curve shows the multiple peaked structures with a duration (T90 in the 50-5000 keV band) of nearly 35 seconds. According to the GCN Report 69.2, the light curve observed by Swift BAT shows an upsurge around T0+350, while in the light curve by Suzaku WAM, there is no such a structure. The fluence in the 100-1000 keV band was (8.4+/-1.7)*10^-6 erg/cm^2, and the 1-s peak flux in the same band was 0.19+/-0.06 photons/cm^2/s. Preliminary result shows that the time-averaged spectrum from T0-5 to T0+40 is well fitted by single power law with a photon index of 2.0+/-0.4 in 100-1000 keV range. All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence level, while systematic errors are not included.
