Scientific paper

We show that if the GRB ejecta itself is magnetized or neutron-rich, the very
early afterglow of GRBs is very different from that powered by a pure ion
fireball. In the Swift era, with the well monitored early afterglow data, we
can potentially diagnose the ejecta composition and reveal the nature of the
central GRB engine.
