Description

Relativistic mean-field theory with parameter sets FSUGold and IU-FSU is extended to study the properties of neutron star matter in β equilibrium by including Kaon condensation. The mixed phase of normal baryons and Kaon condensation cannot exist in neutron star matter for the FSUGold model and the IU-FSU model. In addition, it is found that when the optical potential of the K- in normal nuclear matter UK ≳ -100 MeV, the Kaon condensation phase is absent in the inner cores of the neutron stars. (author)
