        abstract = {We present an asymptotic and numerical study of the evolution of an incoming wavefield which has a caustic close to a curve with an inflection point. Our results reveal the emergence of a wavefield which resembles that of a shadow boundary but has a maximum amplitude along the tangent at the inflection point.},
