Abstract
The distribution functions of suprathermal ions in the energy range 35-2000 keV/amu associated with the interplanetary coronal mass ejection of 14-16 July 2000 are analyzed. The ion spectra agree with a theoretical model on momentum diffusion in two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic turbulence.
