When excited hydrogen atoms are driven by collinear static and microwave el
ectric fields, we discover a series of strong-field resonances that can ion
ize most substates with a given principal quantum number n(0). We describe
a quantal theory using an adiabatic basis that explains the origin of the r
esonances and why they disappear at certain ratios of the two fields. Our t
hree-dimensional classical Monte Carlo calculations reproduce this behavior
. We demonstrate n selectivity sufficient for continued development of this
process as a practical detector.
