Abstract

The self-energy of a moving vortex is shown to decrease with increasing velocity. The interaction energy of two parallel slowly moving vortices differs from the static case by a small term ∝v2; the “slow” motion is defined as having the velocity v<vc=c2/4πσλ, where σ(T) is the conductivity of normal excitations and λ(T) is London penetration depth. For higher velocities, v>vc(T), the interaction energy of two vortices situated along the velocity direction is enhanced and in the perpendicular direction is suppressed compared to the static case.
