  "abstract": "Cosmological gamma-ray bursts are probably powered by systems harboring a rotating black hole. We show that frame-dragging creates baryon-poor outflows in a differentially rotating gap along an open magnetic flux-tube with dissipation $P=\\Omega_T(\\Omega_H-2\\Omega_T)A_\\phi^2$, where $2\\pi A_\\phi$ denotes the flux in the open tube, for angular velocities $\\Omega_H$ and $\\Omega_T$ of the black hole and the torus, respectively. The output in photon-pair outflow will be reprocessed in an intervening hypernova progenitor wind or the ISM.",
