The long GRB 080507 (SuperAGILE: Lapshov et al., GCN 7697
Not found
 
 
)
triggered the Suzaku Wide-band  All-sky Monitor (WAM) which covers
an energy range of 50 keV - 5 MeV at 07:45:00 UT (=T0). The
observed light curve shows a multi-peaked structure starting at T0,
ending at T0+45s, with a duration (T90) of about 30 seconds.
The fluence in 100 - 1000 keV was 4.1(+0.1,-0.3)*10^-5 erg/cm^2.
The 1-s peak flux measured from T0+2s was 3.5(+0.2,-1.3) photons/cm^2/s
in the same energy range.

A preliminary result shows that the time-averaged spectrum from
T0 to T0+45s is well fitted by a power-law with exponential cutoff model:
   dN/dE ~  E^{-alpha} * exp(-(2-alpha)*E/Epeak) with
   alpha       0.79(+0.26, -0.28), and
   Epeak       492(+70, -49) keV (chi^2/d.o.f. = 15.9/23).

All the quoted errors are at statistical 90% confidence level,
in which the systematic uncertainties are not included.
