Abstract

The recent measurement of the mass of neutron stars (PSR J1614 - 2230, PSR J0348 + 0432, MSP J0740 + 6620) restricts the lower limit 2M\sim 2M_{\odot} of the maximum mass of such compact stars, making it possible for dense matter to exist in massive stars. The relativistic mean field theory with parameter sets FSUGold including Kaon condensation is used to describe the properties of neutron stars in β\beta equilibrium. Through careful choice of the parameter of the σ\sigma-cut cσc_{\sigma}, we are able to produce a maximum mass neutron star with Kaon condensation heavier than 2M2M_{\odot}, and we find that the parameter Λν\Lambda_{\nu} of the ρω\rho-\omega interaction term in this model has a significant effect on KK^{-} condensation. In the case of using σ\sigma-cut scheme, KK^{-} condensation occurs only when the ρω\rho-\omega interaction Λν\Lambda_{\nu} is switched off.
