We have examined dielectronic recombination of Ba{sup +} and e{sup {minus}} from a continuum of finite bandwidth. Applying magnetic fields of up to 240thinspthinspG perpendicular to small electric fields from 0.1 to 5thinspthinspV/cm increases the recombination rate, while applying the magnetic field parallel to the electric field does not change the rate. The largest magnetic field enhancement observed was approximately 50{percent} . {copyright} {ital 1999} {ital The American Physical Society }
