We consider the inertial mass of a vortex in a superfluid. We obtain a vortex mass that is well defined and is determined microscopically and self-consistently by the elementary excitation energy of the kelvon quasiparticle localised within…

The paper reassesses the old but still controversial problem of the transverse force on a vortex and the vortex mass. The transverse force from free bulk quasiparticles on the vortex, both in the Bose and the Fermi liquid, originates from…

An inertial mass of a vortex can be calculated by driving it round in a circle with a steadily revolving pinning potential. We show that in the low frequency limit this gives precisely the same formula that was used by Baym and Chandler,…
