Description
It will be discussed how the crust-core matching influences the NS radius and the crust thickness within relativistic mean-field nuclear models. A set of models that predict 2$M_\odot$ stars will be considered. It will be proposed an adequate crust-core matching. The inner crust will described in the Thomas-Fermi approximation within the single heavy cluster approach. The effect of considering light cluster will be referred.
