The ground-state energy {ital V}{sub 0} (relative to vacuum) of quasifree excess electrons in fluid xenon is calculated as a function of fluid density {ital n}. The calculations are performed within the framework of the Wigner-Seitz mean-field approximation for nonpolar fluids, using an accurate atomic pseudopotential to model the excess electron-xenon interaction. The calculated values of {ital V}{sub 0}({ital n}) are compared to experimental data and with other theoretical results. {copyright} {ital 1996 The American Physical Society.}
