Abstract
dc:descriptionThis thesis contains basically three independent but related parts. In the first part, the concept of finite compressibility of a Fermi superfluid is used to reconsider the problem of inertial mass of vortex lines in both neutral and charged superconductors at T = 0. For the charged case, in contrast to previous works where perfect screening was assumed, we take proper account of electromagnetic screening and solve exactly the bulk charge distribution caused by a moving vortex line. A similar problem for a superconducting thin film and the inertial mass for the superfluid $\sp3$He A-B interface are also considered.
