GRB efficiency is defined as

Energy injection
To constrain with the late X-ray data
When the X-ray band is above the cooling frequency, the flux is only sensitively dependent on and (Kumar 2000; Freedman & Waxman 2001).

Causes: In Lloy-Ronning & Zhang (2004): 1. is too large to match the result of numerical calculation . 2. The inverse Compton effect has been ignored.

A possible solution for GRB 060401 ( ):
But: What’s the underlying physics?
The simple energy injection model has been challenged The simple energy injection model has been challenged by more and more data (Panaitescu et al. 2006)!by more and more data (Panaitescu et al. 2006)!
Is there a GRB efficiency crisis ?
The previous estimate on the GRB efficiency
(with the late afterglow data) is overestimated.
The energy injection model is not supported by
the optical data.

Conclusion: The central engine of short
GRB 051221A may be a millisecond magnetar.
Speculation:
A very late/weak
