  The baseline AWAKE experiment requires a 10 meter long plasma source with a density of 1015 cm􀀀-3 and a density uniformity of 0.2%. To produce this plasma, a temperature stabilized rubidium vapor source is photoionized by a terawatt peak power laser pulse. In this paper we describe the laser pulse evolution within the plasma source including the dispersive, diffractive, and photoionization effects on the laser pulse. These calculations will be experimentally investigated in a meter long heat pipe oven using scaled laser parameters.
