Abstract: 
Dielectronic recombination (DR) of lithium-like Ti19+(1s(2)2s) ions via 2s --> 2p core excitations has been measured at the Heidelberg heavy ion storage ring TSR. We find that not only external electric fields (0 less than or equal to E less than or equal to 280 V cm(-1)) but also crossed magnetic fields (30 less than or equal to B less than or equal to 80 mT) influence the DR via high-n 2p(j)nl-Rydberg resonances. This result confirms our previous finding for isoelectronic Cl14+ ions (Bartsch et al 1999 Phys. Rev. Lett. 82 3779) that experimentally established the sensitivity of DR to E x B fields. In the present investigation the larger 2p(1/2)-2P(3/2) fine structure splitting of Ti19+ allowed us to study separately the influence of external fields via the two series of Rydberg DR resonances attached to the 2s --> 2P(1/2) and 2s --> 2p(3/2) excitations of the Li-like core, extracting initial slopes and saturation fields of the enhancement. We find that for E greater than or similar to 80 V cm(-1) the field induced enhancement is about 1.8 times stronger for the 2p(3/2) series than for the 2p(1/2) series.
