We calculate the Debye and Meissner masses of photons and gluons for a spin-one color superconductor in the polar and color-spin-locked phases as well as for a spin-zero color superconductor in the 2SC and color-flavor-locked phases. A general derivation for photon-gluon mixing is provided in terms of the QCD partition function. We show qualitatively and quantitatively which of the gauge bosons attain a mass via the Anderson-Higgs mechanism. Contrary to the spin-zero phases, both spin-one phases exhibit an electromagnetic Meissner effect.
