Within the framework of the slowly varying wave approximation method, the pictures of spatio-temporal dynamics of femtosecond pulse in a ring beam with phase singularity were obtained during propagation in CaF2 crystal with anomalous group velocity dispersion. We show formation of tubular structure of the beam and explain reasons of its appearance. Fluence and linear plasma concentration dependencies on propagation distance are analyzed.
