Abstract
The core structure of the Abrikosov vortex perpendicular to the layers of a proximity effect SN multilayer is discussed. We assume that the superconducting correlations are induced in N via the proximity effect and the dirty limit conditions are fulfilled. The approach for calculation of the local densities of states in N and S layers is developed in the framework of the quasiclassical Usadel equations. For the practically interesting case of SN bilayer, relevant to the STM spectroscopy, the densities of states and apparent STM vortex-core radius, related to the energy-dependent coherence length in N, are calculated.
