Abstract
We discuss whether kaon condensation occurs in neutron star matter by using the Zimanyi-Moszkowski model in the relativistic mean-field theo ry. As a comparison, we also discuss the results from the Boguta-Bodme r model. We show that even though hyperons which may increase the crit ical condensation density are not included, kaon condensation might no t occur in stable neutron stars for the Zimanyi-Moszkowski model.
