Abstract
We have nearly tripled the range of magnetic field strength over which bulk three-body recombination has been studied in spin-polarized atomic hydrogen. Analysis of our data (8--20 T) shows for the first time a qualitative agreement with theoretical predictions for the field dependence of dipolar recombination. Our results for the three-body exchange recombination are over an order of magnitude lower than a previously published value, and thus in reasonable agreement with theory. We discuss the prospects for observing Bose-Einstein condensation in very high magnetic fields.
