Abstract
Gamma ray bursters are interpreted as nuclear explosions under the surface of neutron stars. The explosions occur after transportation of the matter with nonequilibrium composition during starquakes in outer layers where the matter becomes unstable and explodes as a result of a developing chain reaction. In the nonequilibrium matter nuclear charge Z decreases with increasing density, contrary to the equilibrium composition. Formation of a shock wave and total energy output are calculated. Parameters of the mighty burst of 5 March 1979 are estimated. Formation of observed lines in different partions of the range and a possible nature of accompanying optical bursts are discussed with the proposed model as a basis.
