Abstract
Optical guiding of high-intensity laser pulses in a long plasma channe l formed by a slow capillary discharge is proposed. The obtained plasm a channel parameters are studied, and the methods by which they can be Initial results demonstrating guiding in one transverse dimension in such a plasma channel are presented.
