Basic ingredients for the biggest blasts in the cosmos

There is now general agreement that gamma-ray bursts involve extraordinary power outputs, posing a severe theoretical challenge and - irrespective of which detailed model proves correct - involving some fascinating and extreme physical processes. I shall focus on some of the key issues relating the modeling of the trigger and the formation of the ultra relativistic outflow which has been proven to be a formidable challenge to computational techniques.
