Abstract: In the framework of the relativistic mean field theory(RMFT),the condensations of K- and K0 in neutron star matter are studied. We find that K- and K0 condensations can both occur,even in the case that the neutron star matter includes baryon octet and Δ resonances.Also we investigate how hyperons and K condensations influence each other. K0 condensations depress K- condensations and make Δ resonances appear easily. In the high density region, the system may consist of many kinds of baryons, whose number densities are becomming identical. And ultimately K0-rich matter is formed in the core. The equation of state including K condensations becomes softer resulting in a smaller maximum mass of neutron star.
