abstract = {One of the difficulties in nailing down the physical
mechanism of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) comes from the fact
that there has been no clear observational evidence on how
far from the central engine the prompt gamma rays of GRBs
are emitted. Here we present a simple study addressing this
question by making use of the “high-latitude emission”
(HLE). We show that our detailed numerical modeling exhibits
a clear signature of HLE in the decaying phase of “broad
pulses” of GRBs. We show that the HLE can emerge as a
prominent spectral break in F$_{ν}$ spectra and dominate
the peak of νF$_{ν}$ spectra even while the
“line-of-sight emission” (LoSE) is still ongoing. This
finding provides a new view of HLE emergence since it has
been believed so far that the HLE can show up and dominate
the spectra only after the LoSE is turned off. We remark,
however, that this “HLE break” can be hidden in some
broad pulses, depending on the proximity between the peak
energies of the LoSE and the HLE. Therefore, this new
picture of HLE emergence explains both the detection and
nondetection of HLE signature in observations of broad
pulses. Also, we present three examples of Fermi Gamma-ray
Burst Monitor GRBs with broad pulses that exhibit the HLE
signature. We show that their gamma-ray-emitting region
should be located at ∼10$^{16}$ cm from the central
engine, which places a constraint on the GRB models.},
