Abstract
Theoretical aspects of potential astrophysical sources of the highest energy cosmic rays are discussed, including their energy budget and some issues on particle escape and propagation. After briefly addressing AGN jets and GRBs, we highlight the possibility of heavy nuclei originating from cluster accretion shocks. The importance of X-ray and gamma-ray signatures in addition to neutrinos as diagnostic tools for source identification is emphasized.
