Abstract
The motion of an electron in a uniform magnetic field and positive point charge is not integrable. Phase space is often divided between regular regions farther from the positive charge and chaotic regions nearby. As the electron transits the chaotic region, intermittent chaotic behavior ensues. An analytic method to estimate the location of the transit parameters is also developed.
