| Summary: | In this study, we extracted two key prompt emission parameters, i.e., spectral lags and characteristic time scales, and investigated their potential correlation. The minimum variability time scale (MTS) was determined using a wavelet-based method, while spectral lag analysis was conducted via the cross-correlation function (CCF) to examine the temporal properties of 162 gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with known redshifts observed by the Swift/BAT satellite between 2011 and 2019. The analysis suggests short-duration bursts exhibit a shorter variability time scale than long-duration bursts. Although the MTS value for most long- and short-duration GRBs is shorter than T90, a few cases approach the equality limit. Additionally, long-duration bursts tend to have a higher spectral lag than short-duration bursts. We found spectral lag values consistent with zero within their uncertainties for short-duration GRBs. Spectral lags exhibit a strong positive correlation with MTS and a negative correlation with the isotropic peak luminosity (Liso), with slopes of 1.01 ± 0.04 and -1.13 ± 0.20, respectively. |
