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.

The theory of gamma-ray bursts
AIP Conference Proceedings, 1984A γ-ray burst occurs when a strongly magnetic neutron star experiences either a thermonuclear explosion in degenerate material accumulated over a long period of time or the sudden, greatly super-Eddington accretion of matter. Certain aspects of the thermonuclear model are briefly reviewed and special attention is devoted to mechanisms for producing the

Gamma-ray bursts and cosmology
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2007I review the current status of the use of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) as probes of the early Universe and cosmology. I describe the promise of long GRBs as probes of the high redshift ( z >4) and very high redshift ( z >5) Universe, and several key scientific results that have come from ...

The puzzle of γ-ray bursts began in the year 1967 with the detection of inexplicable increases in the count rate of γ-ray detectors on board the Vela series of satellites meant to monitor violations of the nuclear explosion test ban treaty (Strong et al. 1973).
