We study, within a quantum mechanical framework based on self-consistent mean
field theory, the interaction between a vortex and a nucleus immersed in a sea
of free neutrons, a scenario representative of the inner crust of neutron
stars. Quantal finite size effects force the vortex core outside the nucleus,
influencing vortex pinning in an important way.
