Scientific paper

Neutron star Magnetospheric Plasma Oscillations (MPO), can account for the energetics, decay time scale, and spectra of typical Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs). The soft photon source is likely to be due to backwarming of the reprocessing boundary by the incipient gamma rays. It is shown that the observed fraction of bursts displaying low energy absorption features may be understood in the context of an MPO model. Moreover, it is found that GRB spectra should display these cyclotron lines about 18 percent of the time, which is consistent with the KONUS and Ginga sets of data.
