Abstract

Currently, work is underway to create laser accelerators with beam focusing by plasma lenses. For effective focusing, it is necessary to investigate at which initiation of breakdown a discharge forms with a more uniform distribution of current density. Our studies have shown that the plasma distribution is uniform over a longer period of time, including the region of maximum current, if the discharge is initiated by an electron beam.
