"The GRB 091102A (Swift-BAT trigger #374598,GCN Circ. 10117; Fermi-GBM
trigger #278865280, GCN Circ. 10126) triggered the Suzaku Wide-band
All-sky Monitor (WAM) which covers an energy range of 50 keV - 5 MeV
on 2009-11-02 14:34:37.863 UT (=T0).
The observed light curve shows a two-peaked structure, starting at
T0-0.5 s and ending at T0+7.5 s, with a total duration (T90) of 6.6 s.
The fluence in 100 - 1000 keV was 2.31 (-0.61, +0.39) x 10^-6 erg/cm^2.
The 1-s peak flux measured from T0+0.5 s was 1.07 (-0.44, +0.24)
photons/cm^2/s in the same energy range.
Preliminary result shows that the time-averaged spectrum from
T0-0.5 s to T0+7.5 s is well fitted by a single power-law with
a photon index of 1.56 (-0.22, +0.24) (chi^2/d.o.f. = 15.2/14).
All the quoted errors are at statistical 90% confidence level,
in which the systematic uncertainties are not included.
