説明

The 3rd Suzaku international Conference "Energetic Cosmos : from Suzaku to ASTRO-H" (June 29-July 2, 2009. Grand Park Otaru Hotel), Otaru, Hokkaido Japan

The BGO anticoincidence shield of the Suzaku Hard X-Ray Detector Wideband All-Sky Monitor (HXD-WAM) has a geometrical area of 800 cm(sup 2), and operates in the 50 - 5000 keV energy range. It has been designed to act as a gamma-ray burst detector, providing light curves with up to 15.625 millisecond time resolution and energy spectra with up to 55 channels. It was incorporated into the 3rd interplanetary network shortly after launch, and it is now detecting about one confirmed gamma-ray or soft gamma repeater burst every 2.5 days. It has detected over 500 events so far. We describe the HXD-WAM, and explain how the data are being utilized by the scientific community.
