We show that the relativistic two-stream instability can naturally generate strong magnetic fields with 10 -5 -10 -1 of the equipartition energy density, in the collisionless shocks of gamma-ray burst (GRB) sources. The generated fields are parallel to the shock front and fluctuate on the very short...
