abstract = {We reconsider the possibility that gamma-ray bursts (GRBs)
are the sources of the ultra-high energy cosmic rays
(UHECRs) within the internal shock model, assuming a pure
proton composition of the UHECRs. For the first time, we
combine the information from gamma-rays, cosmic rays, prompt
neutrinos, and cosmogenic neutrinos quantitatively in a
joint cosmic ray production and propagation model, and we
show that the information on the cosmic energy budget can be
obtained as a consequence. In addition to the neutron model,
we consider alternative scenarios for the cosmic ray escape
from the GRBs, i.e., that cosmic rays can leak from the
sources. We find that the dip model, which describes the
ankle in UHECR observations by the pair production dip, is
strongly disfavored in combination with the internal shock
model because (a) unrealistically high baryonic loadings
(energy in protons versus energy in electrons/gamma-rays)
are needed for the individual GRBs and (b) the prompt
neutrino flux easily overshoots the corresponding neutrino
bound. On the other hand, GRBs may account for the UHECRs in
the ankle transition model if cosmic rays leak out from the
source at the highest energies. In that case, we demonstrate
that future neutrino observations can efficiently test most
of the parameter space â unless the baryonic loading is
much larger than previously anticipated.We reconsider the
