Abstract

A study was performed on electron trajectories in the magnetic field of capillary discharge. It was shown that capillary discharge plasma channels demonstrated guiding of laser beams. It was found that for typical parameters the deflection of electrons by the magnetic field is small compared with the acceptance of the wakefield.
