Open questions in GRB physics are summarized as of 2011, including classification, progenitor, central engine, ejecta composition, energy dissipation and particle acceleration mechanism, radiation mechanism, long term engine activity, external shock afterglow physics, origin of high energy emission, and cosmological setting. Prospects of addressing some of these problems with the upcoming Chinese-French GRB mission, SVOM, are outlined.

Modeling Gamma-Ray Burst Spectra with Convolutional Neural Networks: Fast-Cooling Synchrotron Emission in a Decaying Magnetic Field
CNN emulator for decaying magnetic field fast-cooling synchrotron spectra is trained on synthetic data and used in Bayesian fits to GRB 231020A, favoring the decaying-field model over the standard version.
