GW170817's late-time afterglow is consistent with a single component from a mildly relativistic jet up to about 2000 days, with no new component and a decline shallower than standard spreading-jet models.

The Late-time Afterglow of GW170817 and Implications for Jet Dynamics
GW170817's late-time afterglow is consistent with a single component from a mildly relativistic jet up to about 2000 days, with no new component and a decline shallower than standard spreading-jet models.
