GRB 090510 broadband modeling in the synchrotron ES scenario. Data are taken from the light curves in Figure 1 of De Pasquale
et al. (2010), where the mean flux measured in each energy range for the different instruments (
Fermi/LAT,
Swift/XRT, and
Swift/UVOT) has been rescaled to give the measured flux at each specific frequency (1 GeV, 1 keV, and 10
15 Hz). This is done by requiring at 100 s the specific flux value reported in the SED plotted in Figure 2 of De Pasquale et
al. (2010). The black, red, and purple solid lines represent the model predictions at 1 GeV, 1 keV, and 10
15 Hz, respectively. Parameters are set as follows—for the narrow and wide jet components (dash-dotted lines), respectively:

43. The blue lines represent the contribution of the narrow and wide jet components at the middle of the BAT energy band;
throughout the evolution this is below the data/upper-limits reported in De Pasquale et al. (2010), in agreement with our
hypothesis that the emission observed in the GBM/BAT/MCAL energy range should be due to IS rather than to ES.
