Scientific paper

Gamma-ray burst sources radiate only a few percent of their energy in X-rays. Therefore, the emission mechanism for the bursts must predominantly produce gamma rays, and nearly all the gamma rays must escape from the systems without being degraded into X-rays. The first constraint argues against the synchrotron process being important for gamma-ray bursts, and the second one indicates the source of the gamma rays must be located far from the surface of a neutron star or that the emission be directed away from the stellar surface.
