Relativistic outflows in accretion-induced collapse of white dwarfs are modeled as sources of UHECRs, contributing a few 10^43-10^45 erg Mpc^{-3} yr^{-1} assuming iron-like nuclei and sufficient event rates.

abstract
Gamma-ray bursts are the most luminous explosions in the Universe, and their origin and mechanism are the focus of intense research and debate. More than three decades after their discovery, and after pioneering breakthroughs from space and ground experiments, their study is entering a new phase with the recently launched Swift satellite. The interplay between these observations and theoretical models of the prompt gamma ray burst and its afterglow is reviewed.

Magnetic reconnection enables higher energy extraction efficiency from singly-rotating five-dimensional Kerr black holes than from doubly-rotating ones and can exceed the Blandford-Znajek process in the single-rotation case.
First blind optical identification of a z=0.153 sub-luminous GRB afterglow with Ic-BL SN, yielding a volumetric rate consistent with on-axis high-luminosity long GRBs.
A review of early optical GRB features including prompt emission, reverse shocks, and afterglow onset, highlighting robotic telescopes' role in constraining jet Lorentz factors and magnetization.
