Cyclotron resonant scattering in gamma-ray bursts - Line strengths and signature of neutron star rotationWe explain the relative line strengths in gamma-ray bursts in terms of cyclotron resonant scattering. We describe the line signature of neutron star rotation and discuss the possibility that variations seen in the strengths and widths of the lines in GB780325 and GB870303 are due to rotation.
