Understand

Jet breaks in gamma ray burst (GRB) afterglows provide a direct probe of their collimation angle.

Modeling a jet break requires an understanding of the "jet spreading" process, whereby the jet transitions from a collimated outflow into the spherical Sedov-Taylor solution at late times.
Currently, direct numerical calculations are the most accurate way to capture the deceleration and spreading process, as analytical models have previously given inaccurate descriptions of the dynamics.
Here (in paper I) we present a new, semi-analytical model built empirically by performing relativistic numerical jet calculations and measuring the relationship between Lorentz factor and opening angle.
