Scientific paper

Conventionally, long GRBs are thought to be caused by the core collapses of massive stars. During the lifetime of a massive star, a termination shock environment should be produced. Furthermore, the microphysics shock parameters may vary along with the evolution of the fireball. Our numerical simulations indicate that adding the evolution of the microphysics shock parameters in the termination shock can acceptably reproduce the rebrightenings in both the R-band and X-ray afterglow light curves of GRBs, for example GRB 060206, GRB 070311 and GRB 071010A.
