Abstract

The effect of large-scale caustics in nondissipative dark matter on the pair correlation function of galaxies is investigated. It is shown that if the initial correlation function of the galaxies is of a power-law form, then the presence of caustics in the observation region does not change the form of the function but only decreases its amplitude.
