In a few dozen seconds, gamma ray bursts (GRBs) emit up to similar to 10(54) erg in terms of an equivalent isotropically radiated energy E-iso, so they can be observed up to z similar to 10. Thus, these phenomena appear to be very promising tools to describe the expansion rate history of the universe. Here, we review the use of the E-p,E- i-Eiso correlation of GRBs to measure the cosmological density parameter OM. We show that the present data set of GRBs, coupled with the assumption that we live in a flat universe, can provide independent evidence, from other probes, that Omega(M) similar to 0.3. We show that current (e.g. Swift, Fermi/GBM, Konus-WIND) and forthcoming gamma ray burst (GRB) experiments (e.g. CALET/GBM, SVOM, Lomonosov/UFFO, LOFT/WFM) will allow us to constrain Omega(M) with an accuracy comparable to that currently exhibited by Type Ia supernovae (SNe-Ia) and to study the properties of dark energy and their evolution with time.
