The Neutron star properties are calculated with the various interactions such as charge dependent Reid potential (Reid93) as well as Reid68 and AV_(18) interactions within the lowest order constrained variational method (LOCV). It is shown that at low densities, neutron star masses exhibit a minimum (≈ 0.1M_☉) and a maximum mass between 1.4M_☉ and 1.9m_☉ which is strongly dependent on the equation of state.
