Description
The recent observations of Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with Swift have provided unprecedented information about nature of GRBs. The launch of GLAST in late 2007 will unveil the final spectral regime of GRB prompt emission and afterglows. Here we briefly review various theoretical suggestions of producing high energy photons from GRB fireballs, and discuss what observatons are expected from the GLAST observatory
