Gamma-ray spectra of EIC emission for a burst with GRB 090902B-like afterglow parameters, at T = 10 2.6 s (thin) and T = 10 3.6 s (thick). For comparison, synchrotron and SSC emission from the standard afterglow component are also shown. The source redshift is set to z = 1. Relevant parameters for the late jet are L b LP| T a = 1.02 × 10 50 erg s −1, T a = 10 3 s, E b = 0.1 keV, α fl = 0, and α st = 2. Relevant parameters for the standard afterglow component are , epsilon ef = 0.15, epsilon Bf = 0.058, n = 5.8 × 10 −4 cm −3, and p = 2.22. The attenuation by pair creation both inside and outside the source is taken into account.
