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.

Jets escaping AGN disks decelerate rapidly in the dense wind-like medium, producing a downshifted spectrum with strong synchrotron self-absorption that creates a quasi-thermal hump, yielding detectable multi-wavelength emission outshining the AGN background with short delays after GW triggers.
The Argus Array and DSA are projected to detect 47 and 82 long GRB afterglows per year respectively from Fermi triggers, along with over 100 independent detections annually and some short GRB counterparts.
Simulations of the BSD instrument for POLAR-2 show it can localize faint GRBs like GRB 170817A to about 1.5 degrees accuracy, meeting requirements for supporting GRB polarimetry.
