Abstract
In a thin waveguide with properties that vary along its course, the propagation of nonstationary normal waves in the presence of caustics for space-time rays is considered. The connection of the critical section of the waveguide with such caustics is determined. Uniform asymptotic formulas are obtained for the wave field in a multiray zone, and the passage into geometric rays outside a neighborhood of the caustics is traced.
