  A simple example of quantum transport in a classically chaotic system is
studied. It consists in a single state lying on a regular island (a stable
primary resonance island) which may tunnel into a chaotic sea and further
escape to infinity via chaotic diffusion. The specific system is realistic : it
is the hydrogen atom exposed to either linearly or circularly polarized
microwaves. We show that the combination of tunneling followed by chaotic
diffusion leads to peculiar statistical fluctuation properties of the energy
and the ionization rate, especially to enhanced fluctuations compared to the
purely chaotic case. An appropriate random matrix model, whose predictions are
analytically derived, describes accurately these statistical properties.
