Quantum Dynamics of a Bose Superfluid Vortex

We derive a fully quantum-mechanical equation of motion for a vortex in a 2-dimensional Bose superfluid in the temperature regime where the normal fluid density ρ[subscript n](T) is small. The coupling between the vortex "zero mode" and the quasiparticles has no term linear in the quasipar...
