Description
Until recently, questions on the maximum particle energy produced by GRBs was primarily int he context of UHECRs. However, the recent spate of TeV gamma-ray measurements bring the question of maximum electron energies into focus. Here I will review the current status of particle acceleration at relativistic shocks, how the theoretical predictions stand up to the recent observations, and what might be the possible implications for UHECR production.
