Complex amplitudes and their dependence upon the projectile scattering angle have been measured for {vert_bar}{ital L},{ital M}{r_angle} substates of doubly excited 1{ital s}[2{ital s}2{ital p} {sup 1}{ital P}]{sup 2}{ital P} and the 1{ital s}2{ital p}{sup 22}{ital D} terms of C{sup 3+} formed in double electron capture by 25 keV C{sup 5+} ions from He atoms. These are extracted from Auger electron anisotropy measured with respect to the incident beam and scattering plane by a coincident electron--scattered ion technique. The results are the most complete experimental description of a low energy double capture collision.
