abstract = {The motion of ions in the fields <b>B</b> =
<i>B</i><sub>0</sub><b>z</b> and <b>E</b> =
<i>E</i><sub>0</sub><b>y</b>
cos(<i>k</i><sub>⊥</sub><i>y</i> −
ω<i>t</i> ) is considered. When ω
>> Ω<sub><i>i</i></sub> and
<i>v</i><sub>⊥</sub> >
ω/<i>k</i><sub>⊥</sub>, the equations of
motion may be reduced to a set of difference
equations. These equations exhibit stochastic
behavior when <i>E</i><sub>0</sub> exceeds a
threshold. The diffusion coefficient above the
threshold is determined. Far above the threshold, ion
Landau damping is recovered. Extension of the method
to include parallel propagation is outlined.}
