My understanding for Xenon is that it's huge electron shell means that it has an induced dipole in the presence of other dipoles in the body. It then affects receptors with dipole-dipole bonds. I was also confused by Xenon working as an anesthetic, and found it interesting that it can interact with the body without forming chemical bonds. Doesn't work for the lighter noble gasses.
