dc.descriptionIn the standard theory of the large scale structure formation, matter accretes onto high density perturbations via gravitational instability. Collisionless dark matter forms caustics around such structures, while collisional baryonic matter forms accretion shocks which then halt and heat the infalling gas. Here, we discuss the characteristics, roles, and observational consequences of these accretion shocks.
