- Within a series of measurements of the dielectronic recombination (DR) of lithium-like ions we have determined the enhancement of the recombination rate in the presence of crossed electric and magnetic fields for Ne7+ and O5+ ions. In both cases the electron energy range covers a DR resonances attached to 2s --> 2p(1/2) and 2s --> 2p(3/2) Delta_n = 0 core excitations. For increasing field the enhancement factor first increases linearly with the electric field and then saturates. In order to investigate the field effect on high-n Rydberg states the ion energy in the O5+ experiment was changed from 9.4 MeV/u to 5 MeV/u and 3.26 MeV/u. With the variation of the ion energy the field ionization of Rydberg states in the analyzing magnet is influenced. This enabled us to study the field enhancement for a narrow bandwidth of n-states.
