Abstract: | The Ginzburg-Landau equations are derived for the magnetic and gluomagnetic gauge fields of nonabelian semi-superfluid vortex filaments in color superconducting cores of neutron stars containing a diquark CFL condensate. The interaction of the diquark CFL condensate with the magnetic and gluomagnetic gauge fields is taken into account. The asymptotic values of the energies of these filaments are determined from the quantization conditions. It is shown that a lattice of semi-superfluid vortex filaments with a minimal quantum of circulation develops in the quark superconducting core during rotation of the star. The magnetic field in the core of this vortex is on the order of 1018 G. A cluster of proton vortices, which develops in the hadron phase surrounding every superfluid neutron vortex owing to an entrainment effect, creates new semi-superfluid vortex filaments with a minimal quantum of circulation in the quark superconducting core.
