Some GRBs are known to beassociated with hypernova explosionswhose explosion energy is 10^52 erg.
= 10 times larger than the explosion energy of a supernova explosion.
= 10 times larger than the energy emitted from the sun in its whole life.
= 10^31 times larger than the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima.
Explosion mechanism is still unknown.
Hypernova Explosion
GRB030329 / SN2003dhGRB030329 / SN2003dh
Its spectrum is similar to that ofa core-collapse supernova (death ofa massive star).
Hypernova will be also associated withdeath of a (very) massive star.
In a core-collapase supernova, a neutronStar is formed at the center.
In a hypernova, a black hole is formedAt the center?
Extraction of Rotation Energy from a Black Hole (BZ effect)?
Rotation Energy of a central BH
=
Const.
For any stationary system, we can define conserved flux vector for energy.
Blandford and Znajek (1977)Roger and Me 2005, Banff, Canada.
I’m going to studyBZ effect numerically.
It’s an interesting project!
If an appropriate Tmunu is put around a BH, energy can be extracted from the BH.

We are planning to include microphysics and performmore realistic simulations of GRBs in the near future.
