Microscopic theory of vortex dynamics in homogeneous superconductors

Abstract

Vortex dynamics in fermionic superfluids is carefully considered from the microscopic point of view. Finite temperatures, as well as impurities, are explicitly incorporated. To enable readers understand the physical implications, macroscopic demonstrations based on thermodynamics and fluctuations- dissipation theorems are constructed. For the first time a clear summary and a critical review of previous results are given.
