Reviewer 2 Report

1) The article to be understandable for the general reader, please give the abbreviation expansion:

L38:Fermi/GBM has two types of scintillation detectors, such as 12 Sodium Iodide (NaI) units…

L39:  2 Bismuth Germanate (BGO) units...

2) L77: pluses – pulses ?

3) L136-137: Something is wrong in the phrase, possibly it could be corrected as below.

This dispersion might be resolved when with more and more SGRBs detected

in distinct types of pulses, which…

4) L150: please, replace although by despite

5) L161: please, replace although by despite

Reviewer 3 Report

Zhao and Tang analyze the light curve and spectral energy distribution of the nine most bright short gamma ray bursts (SGRBs), detected by the Fermi/GBM. They fit the light curves by 1 to 3 pulses, with fast-rising decay profile. After giving an Introduction in Section 1, the authors describe their data analysis in Section 2, present their results in Section 3, discuss them in Section 4, finally give their summary and conclusion in Section 5.
I think the paper is well organized, and the authors present interesting results. They found that the CPL’s peak energy is strongly positive-correlated with the BB’s temperature, which indicates they might be from the same physical origin. This might be an important result. I am hereby recommending the paper to be published in MDPI Universe.
