In the analytic case, any ray through a diffiractive point coincides with either the space-bicharacteristic or the boundary-bicharacteristic through itself. In the Cœ situation, this property does not hold, we give examples of diffractive points as limits of reflective or diffractive points. In [4], R. B. Melrose and J. Sjöstrand consider propagation of Cœ singulari- ties. We prove our results by extending their study of sequences of reflections and applying [3] and chapter X in [6]. To construct an example of a converging sequence of reflections, we follow an idea of M. E. Taylor [5], fitting a C«, convex boundary to an infinite convex polygon representing the projection of the ray in IR2.
