Abstract
A bright, long gamma-ray burst (GRB) was detected and localized by the instruments on board the High Energy Transient Explorer 2 satellite (HETE-2) at 02:44:19.17 UTC (9859.17 s UT) on 2002 August 13. The location was to the GRB Coordinates Network (GCN) about 4 minutes after the burst allowing, early observations of a counterpart in the optical. In the prompt emission, the burst had a duration of approximately 125 s, and more than four peaks. We analyzed the time-resolved energy spectrum of the prompt emission of GRB020813 using the Wide Field X-ray Monitor (WXM) and the French Gamma Telescope (FREGATE) in 2–400 keV in detail. We find that the former part of the burst shows extremely hard X-ray spectrum.
