Kaon Condensation in Neutron Stars

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Physics of Neutron Star Interiors

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Physics ((LNP,volume 578))

Abstract

We discuss the kaon-nucleon interaction and its consequences for the change of the properties of the kaon in the medium. The onset of kaon condensation in neutron stars under various scenarios as well its effects for neutron star properties are reviewed.
