Abstract
Neutron stars feature extremely high magnetic fields with deduced field strengths of G in the case of magnetars and potentially much higher values inside of the star. In this context we consider the appearance of meson condensation taking into account the effect of the magnetic field. The results show that, depending on parameters, such a condensation in magnetized neutron stars might (just) occur.
