Shock waves are ubiquitous in low density flows in astrophysics. In most cases the shocks are collisionless, though in many cases the observable consequences of the shock occur far downstream after collisions have erased the signatures of collisionless processes. This talk will concentrate on a one aspect of shock wave physics addressed by observations within the heliosphere and magnetosphere, and by observations of shock waves in supernova remnants: How is the energy dissipated in a shock partitioned among thermal and non-thermal energies of different particle species and the magnetic field.
