We summarize the observed features of γ-ray bursts, with particular emphasis on the cyclotron lines seen in their spectra. We then discuss the theory of cyclotron resonant scattering, and compare the theoretical and observed line spectra. Finally, we mention some implications.

On the origin of gamma-ray bursts
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2008Gamma-ray bursts are the most energetic explosions in the Universe, occurring at cosmological distances. The initial phase of the emission from these bursts is predominantly of gamma rays and stems from a highly relativistic outflow. The nature of this emission is still under debate.

Gamma-ray bursts are one of the top unsolved mysteries in astrophysics, alongside such burning issues as the nature of dark matter and the cosmological constant. We have known of the existence of gamma-ray bursts for over 25 years, but these short flashes of gamma rays have defied all our attempts to understand their causes and origin.

Historical developments in the field of gamma-ray bursts are briefly reviewed. Both observational and theoretical progresses are discussed. Steps toward measuring the distances of γ-ray bursts, toward building the standard fireball internal-external shock model, are discussed in some detail.

Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) are the most relativistic objects discovered so far. I describe here two aspects of the relativistic nature of GRBs. Their likely association with the formation of black holes and their possible role as sources of gravitational radiation.
