The original models of neutron stars must be improved by including effects of nuclear interaction. This paper compares the models reached by various groups, and presents an improved model by the Kyoto group. The maximum mass varies between 0.2 M and 3 M in the various models. The Vγ model is recommended for use in the absence of further information on the equation of state at high densities.
