We have measured absolute cross sections for processes of one and multi-electron capture in slow (0.1--0.2 a.u.) Xe[sup q+]-Xe collisions in the charge state regime 15[le]q[le]37. The transfer of two to six electrons from the target to the projectile, where two electrons stay on the projectile after deexcitation is studied. We find that the probability for keeping two electrons on the projectile (i.e. radiative stabilization of two electrons) increases rapidly with q and with the number of electrons initially transferred.
