theoretical interpretations late forward shock passage of inhomogeneous circum-burst medium (density
bumps) (e.g., Lazzati et al. 2002, Mimica's talk) multi-component jet (e.g., Granot et al. 2006; Racusin
et al. 2008) varying micro-physical parameters (e.g., Kong et
al. 2010) late time engine activity, refreshed shocks (e.g.,
Vlasis et al. 2011)
