Abstract:	Gamma ray bursts (CRBs) have been proposed as one possible class of sources of the ultrahigh energy cosmic ray (UHECR) events observed up to energies greater than or similar to 10(20) eV. The synchrotron radiation of the highest energy protons accelerated within the GRB source should produce gamma rays up to TeV energies. Here we briefly discuss the implications on the energetics of the GRB From the point of view of the detectability of the prompt TeV gamma-rays of proton-sychrotron origin in GRBs in the up-coming ICE CUBE muon detector in the south pole.
