60 Conclusions Quantum zero zero point motion of of vortices provides a unified explanation for for many LDOS features observed in in STM experiments. Size Size of of LDOS modulation halo halo allows estimate of of the the inertial mass of of a vortex The The deduced energy of of the the LDOS sub-gap peak provides a strong consistency check of of our our proposal Direct detection of of vortex zero-point motion may may be be possible in in inelastic neutron or or light-scattering experiments
