The Local-Galactic interpretation of the Gamma-Ray Bursts

High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena 2009-10-06 v1

Abstract

In this talk, I shall update my 16-year old claim that all the (thousands of) observed GRBs - both long and short, repeating or (so far) not - come from the surfaces of Galactic neutron stars, often called 'magnetars', or 'throttled pulsars'.
