Structured GRB jet simulations find that local electron cooling shifts the synchrotron cooling break up by over a factor of ten, smooths the transition, produces steeper post-break slopes initially, and originates from a narrow frequency-dependent region behind the shock front.

High-resolution simulations demonstrate that two-zone models for GRB early afterglows fail to match hydrodynamic evolution in the Newtonian reverse shock regime before Blandford-McKee self-similarity, causing systematic overpredictions of emission depending on the transition prescription.
A second coherent radio burst spanning 704-4032 MHz with spectral index -2.18, 54% linear and 22% circular polarization, and an orthogonal polarization angle jump was detected from 2XMM J104608.7-594306, showing rare radio activity in sources thought to be radio-quiet.
First blind optical identification of a z=0.153 sub-luminous GRB afterglow with Ic-BL SN, yielding a volumetric rate consistent with on-axis high-luminosity long GRBs.
A review of early optical GRB features including prompt emission, reverse shocks, and afterglow onset, highlighting robotic telescopes' role in constraining jet Lorentz factors and magnetization.

Moving-mesh simulations of spreading dynamics and local electron cooling in structured gamma-ray burst afterglow jets
Structured GRB jet simulations find that local electron cooling shifts the synchrotron cooling break up by over a factor of ten, smooths the transition, produces steeper post-break slopes initially, and originates from a narrow frequency-dependent region behind the shock front.
