Allowed parameter space (shaded regions) for afterglow nondetection, assuming a Gaussian-structured jet, at 158 Mpc (z = 0.0344). Left: allowed values of the density A* vs. the isotropic-equivalent kinetic energy at the jet’s core Ekin for different viewing angles θv/θc. We have fixed θc = 0.15 rad, εe = 0.1, εB = 0.01, p = 2.2, and Γ0 = 100. Right: similar to the left panel but instead as a function of εB for fixed Ekin = 1048 erg.
