So far all analytic models of heating of clusters in the collisionless domain are based on linear or linearized concepts, like Mie resonance or other linear oscillations. They are characterized by constant eigenfrequencies lying well above the frequencies of most intense lasers. In this paper we show that nonlinear resonant excitation constitutes the basis of absorption in the collisionless domain, for individual electrons as well as for entire electron bunches. With increasing amplitude of the particles oscillating in their own space charge field their eigenperiod increases and at sufficient driver strength it equals and exceeds the constant laser period. At the crossing point, and essentially only there, resonant absorption takes place. Neither nonlinearities in themselves nor asymmetric excitation of the electron cloud of the cluster leads to irreversible energy gain.
