Abstract

In this paper, we select a sample including 141 BEST time-integrated F spectra and 145 BEST peak flux P spectra observed by the Konus-Wind with known redshift to recheck the connection between the spectral width and EisoE_{iso} as well as LisoL_{iso}. We define six types of absolute spectral widths. It is found that all of the rest-frame absolute spectral widths are strongly positive correlated with EisoE_{iso} as well as LisoL_{iso} for the long burst for both the F and P spectra. All of the short bursts are the outliers for width-EisoE_{iso} relation and most of the short bursts are consistent with the long bursts for the width-LisoL_{iso} relation for both F and P spectra. Moreover, all of the location energy, E2E_{2} and E1E_{1}, corresponding to various spectral widths are also positive correlated with EisoE_{iso} as well as LisoL_{iso}. We compare all of the relations with the Amati and Yonetoku relations and find the width-EisoE_{iso} and width-LisoL_{iso} relations when the widths are at about 90\% maximum of the EFEEF_{E} spectra almost overlap with Amati relation and Yonetoku relation, respectively. The correlations of E2EisoE_{2}-E_{iso}, E1EisoE_{1}-E_{iso} and E2LisoE_{2}-L_{iso}, E1LisoE_{1}-L_{iso} when the location energies are at 99\% maximum of the EFEEF_{E} spectra are very close to the Amati and Yonetoku relations, respectively. Therefore, we confirm the existence of tight width-EisoE_{iso} and width-LisoL_{iso} relations for long bursts. We further show that the spectral shape is indeed related to EisoE_{iso} and LisoL_{iso}. The Amati and Yonetoku relations are not necessarily the best relationships to relate the energy to the EisoE_{iso} and LisoL_{iso}. They may be the special cases of the width-EisoE_{iso} and width-LisoL_{iso} relations or the energy-EisoE_{iso} and energy-LisoL_{iso} relations.
