Hanabata, T. Uehara, T. Takahashi, Y. Fukazawa, C. Kira (Hiroshima U.), S. Hong (Nihon U.), on behalf of the Suzaku WAM team, report: The long GRB 090112B (van der Horst et al., GCN 8805) triggered the Suzaku Wide-band All-sky Monitor (WAM) which covers an energy range of 50 keV - 5 MeV at 2009-01-12 17:30:14 UT (=T0). The observed light curve shows multiple peaks and lasting from T0-1 s to T0+12 s with a duration (T90) of about 8 seconds. The fluence in 100 - 1000 keV was (5.2 +/- 0.3) x 10^-6 erg/cm^2. The 1-s peak flux measured from T0+3 s was 3.5 (+0.2/-0.3) photons/cm^2/s in the same energy range. Preliminary result shows that the time-averaged spectrum from T0-1 s to T0+12 s is well fitted by a single power-law with a photon index of 2.46 +/- 0.14 (chi^2/d.o.f = 18/22). All the quoted errors are at statistical 90% confidence level, in which the systematic uncertainties are not included.
