Abstract

We consider Single Black Holes (SBHs) of 10³ M_⊙ as possible parent objects for cosmological GRBs. The latter are the result of the energy release of SBHs magnetosphere inhomogeneities. The percolation nature of this release yields a unique power law for the GRBs energy distribution that is E^-β (with β = 1.7-1.8), i.e. the same observed in solar flares, flare stars and X-ray sources. The number of GRBs per year per galaxy is about 10^-2-10^-1 with total energy 10⁴⁷-10⁵⁰ ergs for beaming factor of about 10^-4-10^-5.
