Formulas describing the conversion of an elastic wave into an electromagnetic field at the boundary between a type-II superconductor and the vacuum are obtained which admit passing to both the limiting cases of the normal and Meissner states. A strategy that would permit experimental measurement of the dynamical parameters of the vortex lattice is discussed. It is pointed out that the study of the inertial (Stewart–Tolman) component of the radiated field is a promising area of research.
