 +Shen & Zhang 09 paper 2009, MNRAS 398, 1936 shows that (1) Synchrotron can have the same appearance at gamma, X, but very different manifestations at optical, in four cases. This is the most recent treatment, those below are listed for hisotrical interest.   (2) the same paper shows that incredible information, lorentz factor, radius of emission, and B are encoded in the self-absoption frequency (so go measure it!).

 +"Figure 22. Synchrotron spectrum of a relativistic shock with a power-law electron distribution. (a) Fast cooling, which is expected at early times (t < t0). The spectrum consists of four segments, identified as A, B, C, D. Self-absorption is important below  nua. The frequencies, num,  nuc,  nua, decrease with time as indicated; the scalings above the arrows correspond to an adiabatic evolution, and the scalings below, in square brackets, to a fully radiative evolution. (b) Slow cooling, which is expected at late times (t > t0). The evolution is always adiabatic. The four segments are identified as E, F, G, H. From [Sari, R., Piran, T., & Narayan, R., 1998, Ap. J. Lett., 497, L17.]."
