From simulated afterglows, the position of the jet break (or maximum for off-axis events) alone gives the isotropic kinetic energy of a short GRB to tens of percent, via fitted power-law relations.

Connecting afterglow light curves to the GRB central engine
From simulated afterglows, the position of the jet break (or maximum for off-axis events) alone gives the isotropic kinetic energy of a short GRB to tens of percent, via fitted power-law relations.
