Abstract
The mechanism underlying the electron capture acceleration (Phys. Rev. E 58 (1998) 6575) is studied. It is found that the longitudinal electric field, resulting from the transverse spatial gradient of the laser fields, is responsible for the violent electron acceleration while the transverse fields play the role of confining the electron inside the laser beam.
