摘要
Recent findings from the continuum spectroscopy analyses of gamma-ray bursts can be used to constrain proposed emission models. All the observed richness of behavior comes despite the simplicity of the canonical four-parameter functional form that is so successful for fitting spectra in the BATSE energy band. The distributions of time-resolved fitted spectral parameters, now available for bright bursts in the first BATSE Spectroscopy Catalog, are quite revealing. I will review the issues pertaining to the current status of GRB spectroscopy, with an emphasis on observations that must be accounted for by theory.
