Abstract
The properties of cold nuclear matter are investigated in a class of n onlinear mean field sigma-omega theories which includes a density depe ndence of the meson parameters. This dependence can be both explicit a nd implicit through the effective nucleon mass. We apply the theory to the case of an interaction between the scalar and the vector mesons a nd investigate the properties of neutron stars using the resulting equ ation of state.
