GRBs UHECR nuclei source candidates: acceleration & energetics UHE p-induced X/  -rays GeV-TeV  -rays propagation: extragalactic radiation and B fields neutrinos -> Halzen different AGN types UHECR-induced secondary X/  radiation signatures

3 The problem: UHECRs are the highest energy particles observed in the universe, exceeding 10 20 eV. Their origin is unknown. E max ~ 3x10 20 eV ~50J ~kinetic E of 100km/h fastball (220km/h tennis serve)

4 UHECR observations spectrumat least up to 10 20 eV arrival directions composition light dominant up to ~<2x10 19 eV? >10 20 eV X max [g cm -2 ] globally isotropic no ID with sources AGASA HiRes before July (ICRC) 07 observations -> Kampert
