In order to study the dynamics of accelerated electrons in the plasma wakefield driven by asymmetric laser pulses,the phase space,electron density and potential energy of accelerated electrons were obtained by means of numerical simulation.The results show that the electrons have high energy in the wakefield of asymmetric laser pulses.In order to accelerate the electron effectively,it is necessary to chose appropriate rise length and fall length in the wakefield of asymmetric laser pulses.
