The transition from the Lenz potential at low densities to the Hartree potential at high densities can be calculated analytically by making a Wigner-Seitz cell approximation and employing a square well potential. As the Hartree potential is less attractive than the Lenz one, kaon condensation inside cores of neutron stars appears to be less likely than previously estimated.5 pages, Proc. of "Nuclear Astrophysics", Hirschegg jan. 11-17, 1998AstrophysicsNuclear Theorytext
