Abstract
The Brueckner-Hartree-Fock approximation extended to include ground-st ate correlations is applied to neutron matter. Single-particle propert ies are calculated including neutron mean field, effective mass and me an free path. The main result is a pronounced enhancement of the effec tive mass at the Fermi surface whose influence on neutron star propert ies is discussed. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.
