abstract = {In proposed Tokamak RF heating schemes using waves
near the lower hybrid frequency, fields with large
<i>k</i><sub>⊥</sub><i>a</i><sub><i>i</i></sub>
can be generated, either directly by linear conversion
into lower hybrid waves or by the parametric decay
into lower hybrid waves and ion Bernstein waves. The
fields can significantly perturb the motion of an ion,
and hence can nonlinearly heat the ions. In this
report we present the results of a numerical solution
of the orbit equation and give an approximate formula
for the ion energy gain.}
