In the standard synchrotron afterglow model, a power law of electrons is responsible for all aspects of photon production and absorption. Recent numerical work has shown that the vast majority of particles in the downstream medium are actually "thermal" particles, which were shock-heated but did not enter the Fermi acceleration process (the name st...
