Vortex induced deformation of the superconductor crystal lattice

Deformation of the superconductor crystal lattice caused by Abrikosov vortices is formulated as a response of the elastic crystal lattice to electrostatic forces. It is shown that the lattice compression is linearly proportional to the electrostatic potential known as the Bernoulli potential. Eventual consequences of the crystal lattice deformation on the effective vortex mass are discussed.
