Scientific paper

We discuss several issues [1] regarding on the Blandford-Znajek process [2, 3] to demonstrate that it can be an effective mechanism for powering gamma-ray bursts [4]. The global picture of the magnetosphere around the rotating black hole suggested by Blandford and Znajek is the force-free configuration of electromagnetic charge and current distributions with the rotating magnetic field lines. The accretion disk surrounding the black hole is a natural candidate for the supporting system of the strong magnetic field on the black hole. The currents out of the black hole in the equatorial plane pass through the accretion disk to make the closed circuit of currents together with the inflowing currents onto the horizon from the loading region at infinity...
