Check chapter 10 of AC65-12A for descriptions of the terms and causes. Yes an Afterburner is for dumping fuel into the exhaust of jet engines for increased thrust. The term afterburn in reference to piston engines probably was in use before jet engines.

That's good info. Thanks for passing it along.. I would have guessed
that afterburning refers to a desirable method of increasing thrust on
turbojets, but that's what I get for guessing I suppose. Looking around
on the google, afterburning appears to be a feature whereas afterfiring
appears to be a fault. I probably haven't looked enough yet...
