High intensity laser propagation in plasmas is one of the key issues in fast ignition scheme of laser fusion energy. We have investigated experimentally and computationally the laser propagation in dense plasmas. The experiment demonstrates plasma channel formation and indicates laser propagation through overdense plamsas with relativistic self-focusing. The channel direction coincides with the laser axis. Two and three-dimensional particle-in-cell simulation reproduces the plasma channel and reveals that the laser propagation is dependent on the laser focus position in plasmas.
